The main entrance to the mall faces Buffalo street and includes a ramp that can be used to enter the space (this ramp is rather steep and can be slippery during weather events, the ramps handrails are also too far apart to hold onto both as you use the ramp).
The store can also be accessed through their main doors on Buffalo street opposite the Dewitt Park through two doors that have raised thresholds.
The Bathroom in Dewitt mall requires several steps up to access.
The reading room is located in the back of the store and can be accessed through either the entrance from Buffalo street or through the Dewitt Mall entrances.
