How to borrow resources
Anyone living in Scotland can borrow our resources - disabled people, parents/carers, professionals, students - anyone with an interest in disability issues.
Resources can be taken out on loan for one month. People can borrow up to four items at one time. If it is not possible for you to come to the library in person, we can post items out to you. (Please note that borrowers are responsible for the cost of returning library resources).
Library Catalogue Online
Capability Scotland is one of 13 partner organisations that make up the Scottish Consortium for Learning Disability (SCLD). Five of the partners of SCLD have made their library catalogues jointly available online.
To view the catalogue, go to the library page on the SCLD website. If you find a resource listed there you would like to borrow, please contact the library partner who holds the resource.
Booklists
We have put together a number of booklists giving details of resources we have in our library on a range of popular subjects. Please see below.
These lists are not exhaustive as we are adding new books to our library all the time. Contact Us for information about new additions. We can also carry out a search for you if the subject you are interested in is not covered by one of our booklists.
