Yes. Trained service animals are welcome throughout the Library. Under the ADA, a service animal is a dog individually trained to do work or perform tasks for a person with a disability. Our team may ask two questions — whether the animal is required because of a disability, and what task it has been trained to perform — but we won’t ask for documentation, and no vest or ID is required. Emotional support animals and pets are welcome on the grounds but are not permitted inside the building.

Yes. If you or someone in your group would like a quieter space during your visit, please speak with a member of our Welcome Team and we’ll be happy to help.

For questions about mobility access, sensory considerations, service animals, or requesting assistance before your visit, email access@trlibrary.com. We’re glad to help you plan a comfortable visit.
