Assistive Technology Lending Library 
Direct and Contracted Staff

   
 
Young children change in size and capability very quickly and may outgrow a piece of assistive technology (AT) in a matter of months.  A lending library is a cost efficient way to make such devices available to a large number of children who may only need them for a short period of time.  The AT Device should be returned once the child no longer needs or outgrows the equipment, so another child may benefit from the AT Device.
