In 2023, the U-M Library conducted its first comprehensive survey across students and employees. This blog post covers my specific research exploring the experiences of people with disabilities in the libraries, and their struggles with accessibility by analyzing data from the campus-wide survey. The goal of this research was to reveal struggles people with disabilities are facing in the libraries. By improving the library spaces with accessibility in mind, everyone – not just those with disabilities – benefits.
