Accessibility and Inclusion

SCLSNJ is committed to meeting the needs of all library users.  This includes making our collections, public programs, and services accessible to those of differing abilities.  

The Somerset County Library System of New Jersey (SCLSNJ) will make all reasonable modifications to policies and programs to attempt to ensure that people with disabilities have an equal opportunity to enjoy its programs, services, and activities. If you have a disability and are in need of an accommodation, contact the branch manager at the library branch where the program or service is provided no later than two weeks prior to the event.

All SCLSNJ branches allow service animals to accompany patrons into the building to partake of our full range of services, including programs.
