Reference librarians can assist with any questions you have about using the library or conducting library research. For a comprehensive description of features, please use the blue menu on the left-hand side of the screen to navigate this guide. Currently, many Library resources provide accessibility features such as text-to-speech, closed captioning, and compatibility with screen readers and mouseless navigation. Students, faculty, and staff are encouraged to contact us with any issue concerning the electronic journals, books, and databases. As vendors continue to work toward compliance and usability, the functionality of their databases will improve. Therefore, in some cases, the Library is unable to provide an alternative accessible copy or version of the resource if the resource itself was not properly encoded for accessibility from the start. The Library provides students with access to licensed content which is hosted and delivered on the providers’ websites. The NCU Library subscribes to many electronic resources provided through a variety of commercial vendors and publishers, and, unfortunately, not all resources were designed for maximum accessibility.

Students, faculty, and staff are encouraged to contact us with any issue concerning the Library website. The NCU Library strives to make its website accessible in accordance with WCAG 2.0, ADA, Section 508, and other accessibility standards and guidelines.
