Using the Computer Labs

Finding a computer to use

The computers in the labs are available only if:

• The computer labs are open. Hours of operation are posted outside each lab.
• There are no classes in session.

If class is in session, you may use a computer only if you have permission from the instructor teaching the class (ask before the start of the class) and if the door is not closed. If the door is closed do not enter the computer lab.

When using a lab with a class in session, please try to use computers in the back of the classroom. Also, be respectful and work silently so that you do not interrupt the class.

Instructors have the right to ask students who are not in their class to leave.

All computers have the same software, with a couple of exceptions

Computers with attached scanners are in labs A2702, A2704, A2408 and C2220 (Library Lab).  These computers are the computers that are beside the scanner and have additional software installed to operate the scanner. Computers that have extra software will have a sign above them tell you what extra software is installed on that computer. All computers have Microsoft Word for typing up essays, letters, term papers, etc. All computers have an Internet connection for web surfing and emailing.
