In addition, they can reserve 20 laptops to be delivered to the room with 72-hour notice. This room is expected to be completed in Fall 2001. Special purpose classrooms such as the Joyce Building CADD Lab will remain because they support academic programs. As more students become a part of the laptop program, then some of the general purpose computer classrooms will be turned into laptop classrooms when the current technology is scheduled to be replaced. The Academic Computer Center has moved to the Mabee Library.
Students are now able to conduct their research and type their papers in one location.
The computers are located in computer rooms 105 and 103 and in the northeast stack area on the first floor. The ACC staff is available to support students with technological difficulties. Also, multimedia computers will be set up in the Media Services Center so students can scan images, edit videotape and produce multimedia programs. Color printing will be available as well. This is a new vision for both the library and the Office of Instructional Technology and laptops made it happen.
