Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "<stdin>", line 1, in ?
TypeError: access() argument 1 must be string, not list

it's not clear from the OP if he wants

    [os.access(file, mode) for file in glob.glob(path))]

    os.access(glob.glob(path)[0], mode)

or, most likely, simply

    if glob.glob(path):
        ... some matching file exists ...
