Facility Guidelines
As a government entity, the City of Coppell strives to make available facilities open for public use in a manner consistent with Title II of the Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA) of 1990. We hope that as you utilize our facilities, you will find them accessible and efficient for your needs.
In compliance with the non-discrimination requirements of Title III of the ADA, a community group, non-profit entity, or private business must facilitate, at its sole expense, any disability-related request for reasonable accommodation, effective communication, or program modification that does not impose undue burden (significant difficulty or expense).
A government entity has no obligation to facilitate requests for reasonable accommodations connected to an event or activity sponsored or managed by a community group, non-profit entity, or private business that is making use of government-owned facilities.
If you have any questions or concerns in regard to the accessibility of any City facilities being utilized by a community group, non-profit entity, or private business, please notify the manager of that particular facility or Kori Allen, ADA & Capital Programs Coordinator, at 972-462-5148.

We are pleased to announce that effective immediately, you may resume requesting inter-library loans (ILLs) via our website. However, please note that while we have resumed this service, most other libraries have not. As a result, the likelihood of denials are much greater than before.

CITY TO BEGIN PASSING CREDIT CARD FEES TO CUSTOMERS OCTOBER 1
Effective October 1, 2020, a credit card processing fee will show as a separate charge on your credit card statement for any payments made by credit card to the City of Coppell, including any payments for printing, lost items, and nonresident accounts. The Library will be unable to process credit card transactions on Thursday, October 1, 2020.
The City's credit card processor, Automated Merchant Systems (AMS), charges a fee each time a credit or debit card is used to pay for a bill, fee, or service both online and in-person. These fees, which are currently paid by the City and added up to $231,000 in fiscal year 2019, will now be passed onto the customer. Current legislation permits the passage of credit card fees onto customers, and surveys revealed that this is a common practice in some surrounding cities. AMS is conducting a study to determine the fee rate, but it is expected to be 3 to 3.5 percent and will show up as a separate charge on customers' credit card statements.
Cash payments will continue to be 15¢ for black and white prints/copies and 50¢ for color prints/copies.
