When the renovation is complete, Euclid Public Library will be more accessible thanks to a grant from the Ohio Department of Developmental Disabilities. The library was given $10,000 to create a universal changing table in the library’s public restroom.
The table will meet the restroom needs of people with disabilities and those with complex medical conditions. Universal changing tables are similar to infant changing tables found in restrooms at restaurants and shopping and entertainment venues but are designed to accommodate the height and weight of adults.
Without these tables, children and adults with disabilities cannot access public venues or must be changed on the ground or in unsafe environments. Euclid Public Library is excited to offer this new service to its patrons.
