Library Large Print & Audio Request Form

Accessible Library Services Made Simple

Libraries serve diverse communities, and ensuring equitable access to reading materials for patrons with vision impairments is essential. This Library Large Print & Audio Request Form template streamlines the process of requesting accessible formats, making it easier for your library to deliver inclusive services that meet the needs of every reader.

Why This Template Works for Libraries

For public libraries, academic institutions, and special collections, managing requests for large print books and audio alternatives can be time-consuming when handled through email or phone calls. This form centralizes all requests in one place, captures essential information about format preferences and delivery options, and helps library staff prioritize and fulfill requests efficiently.

Whether you're a librarian, library administrator, or accessibility coordinator, this template helps you:

• Collect detailed information about title requests and format preferences
• Understand each patron's specific accessibility needs
• Offer multiple format alternatives including large print and audiobooks
• Track fulfillment timelines and notify patrons when materials are ready
• Demonstrate your commitment to inclusive library services

Seamless Integration with Your Library Workflow

Built with Paperform's intuitive editor, this form can be customized to match your library's branding and embedded directly on your website. Patrons can submit requests 24/7, and responses flow directly to your preferred system.

Connect submissions to your library management system, send automated confirmation emails, or use Stepper (stepper.io) to create workflows that automatically update your catalog system, send status updates to patrons, and notify staff when materials arrive. With conditional logic built in, the form adapts based on whether patrons prefer large print, audio formats, or both.

Supporting Vision-Impaired Readers with Dignity

This form respects patron privacy while gathering the information your staff needs to provide excellent service. By offering clear format options, font size selections, and delivery preferences, you empower patrons to communicate their needs without unnecessary back-and-forth communication.

Libraries using Paperform can manage hundreds of accessibility requests while maintaining the personal touch that makes library services special. Start with this template and customize it to reflect your collection, your policies, and your community's unique needs.
