Services for People with Disabilities

The Milton Public Library is accessible for individuals with physical and intellectual challenges. Library staff is happy to provide assistance in any way.

To all full access to our library and its services we offer:

Home Delivery – Library At Your Doorstep

The Library partners with our Friends of the Library to offer home delivery to residents who cannot otherwise access our collections. You can contact Jean Hlady for more information: 617-698-4958. For more information visit our Library at your Doorstep page.

Desktop Video Magnifier

The Library offers an easy-to-use desktop machine that allows individuals with vision loss to read or view printed materials, including books, magazines, and photographs. The Magnifier is located on the second floor. You can ask for assistance at the Reference Desk.

Library Collections

The Library collections include over 2,000 items available in large print, in addition to access to thousands more in the Old Colony Library Network. The Library also offers audiobooks, both in CD format and digital. eBooks are another good solution, as you are able to increase font sizes for improved visibility.

Library of Things

A Sensory Solutions Kit is available in the Library of Things at the Reference Desk on the second floor. Kit includes items that may help with sensory regulation: fidget toys, noise-canceling headphones, a weighted lap pad and wobble seat.
