Use of Computer Labs for Classes

 

This policy sets the guidelines to be used when scheduling the Library Computer Lab for use by University faculty and staff.

• The Technology Services Library Computer Lab may not be scheduled for recurring sessions. It can be scheduled only for one-time or short-term events.
   
• To reserve space in lab, call the Technology Services Office Manager at (205) 665-6512.
   
• Students in the scheduled class are expected to be respectful of other students who may be using the lab during their class time.
   
• Technology Services will attempt to schedule as many classes as possible  without impinging on the availability of the lab for all students.
   
• Special software needing to be installed for your class must be provided to Technology Services at least two weeks prior to the scheduled event.  All installation disks and documentation, as well as licenses, must be included.
   
• Technology Services will not install any software for which the correct number of licenses is not available.
   
• A lab assistant will be on duty during the scheduled class time.
   
• The print management system must be used in order for students to print.  Print cards may be purchased from the vending machine on the main floor of Carmichael Library.  More information about the print management system is available here.
