- Ample room for wheelchair access
- Comfortably navigable when 2-3 people are in bookstore.

Restroom
- The bathroom measures approximately 79 inches wide and 81 inches deep.
- The vanity is 35.5 inches high, and the toilet seat height is 19 inches.
- The horizontal distance across the toilet area is 51 inches, with 34.5 inches of clearance on the right side between the toilet and the wall.
- The limited width across the toilet area and the right-side clearance restrict lateral movement and make side transfers difficult.
- The vanity reduces usable floor and knee space, limiting access for seated or mobility-impaired users.
