Adaptive Technology

Hearing loop

Hearing loop systems are installed at service desks at the Downtown Library, Bethel Branch, and Sheldon Branch, as well as in event rooms at the Downtown Library. This easy to use technology works with your own hearing aids or with loop receivers we can provide on request.

An ASL interpreter can be arranged for any library event with two business days’ advance reservation by contacting Eugene Public Library by email or phone: 541-682-5454.
