Assistive Technology

DSS has dedicated assistive technology labs in the Gelman Library (rooms 308 and 309) for students with disabilities.  These labs are available at any time during Gelman’s operating hours. 

To use the labs, you must receive approval from Susan McMenamin.  Customarily, approval occurs at the time of your DSS registration.  However, you may contact Susan at any time during your career at GW to request access to Gelman 308 and 309. 

Contact Seth Bravin to receive access to the labs or to ask any assistive technology questions.   

Learn more about the technology offered in each of the  Gelman Library lab spaces.
