Accessibility and Services for Users with Disabilities
Qualified students with documented disabilities can obtain accommodations and services through their Disability Support Services office at Cascadia Community College or at UW Bothell.
Getting Help From Librarians
Librarians are available to answer questions about library resources, research strategies, focusing a topic, citing sources, evaluating information and more. More information can be found on our Subject Librarians page.
Paging
UW Bothell students, staff and faculty can request books to be pulled from the shelf and held at the Circulation desk downstairs by clicking on "Request / Place Hold" while searching in the online catalog. Staff will then pull the books from the stacks and hold them for pickup behind the library circulation desk.
