Public computer equipment in the libraries has been substantially upgraded to accommodate the changes. Help is available. As always, we welcome your questions at the reference and information desks as you navigate the networked resources available through the Library Gateway. We added new high-end equipment in our Reference areas, shifted faster computers to the Olin stacks, and replaced all of our older public use Apple LCIIs in order to provide enhanced access to the Library Gateway's Networked Resources and to better position ourselves for the advent of the Digital Library. With this move all of our library kiosk workstations are Web accessible.
