Disability Resource Library
The Disability Resource Library (DRL) is a resource for people of all ages with disabilities of all kinds. It is also a resource for families, and for the service providers with whom they work. DRL collections focus on information for, by, and about people with disabilities. Materials come in a variety of formats -- books, DVDs, training curricula, software, and assistive technology in which you can borrow in person (located in UIHC's Center for Disabilities & Development) or by mail.
 

Center for Disabilities & Development
The University of Iowa's Center for Disabilities and Development works with people with disabilities, their family members, providers, state and local agencies, and others every day. Our goal is to improve the health and community participation of people with disabilities.
