520 |a A librarian describes library services available for physically impaired students at Northern Illinois University in DeKalb. Following background information on the university's commitment to disabled students, a discussion is presented on the effects of federal legislation on changes in library facilities; collections; and services for disabled persons, including special equipment and materials for those who cannot use conventional printed materials. Cooperation with other university offices serving disabled students is stressed. A training program to orient visually impaired students and their readers and hearing impaired students and their interpreters is reviewed. The librarian's role in promoting awareness of disabled library users is stressed, and an orientation program on communication is cited as an example. The importance of publicizing special library services is also noted. (CL)
