Indeed, this library has been in the vanguard in providing access to electronic resources to its users since its move into the new Health Sciences Education Building in 1991. We are in the process of updating the computers in the Learning Resource Center. Through increases in computing power, memory space, and graphics capabilities, we are vastly improving services to staff and students. We have added some new programs as well. We have also created a new state of the art PC training room that has 10 new workstations and a teaching station.
All machines have access to the Internet and the network.
They also each have access to our locally mounted databases on OVID and our library catalog, as well as software such as WordPerfect 7. This room is available for booking training classes. In the future we will also be adding a Mac training room. In the near future, we will be upgrading our multimedia computers and printers and are also in the process of creating a workstation for student desktop publishing and web publishing. The library has new web-based public access terminals on all floors.
