The laptops are intended for on-campus use only. They may NOT be taken off campus. The laptops are are circulated only for the class hour(s) needed and must be returned promptly. |

You may install software and personal files at your own risk. Please note that any files or programs will be deleted when the computers reboot. Contact an LSS staff member to request permanent software additions. |

Once you pick up the laptop at the AV Pool, you are financially responsible for the computer and the associated pieces of hardware, just as with any other piece of AV Pool equipment. An illustrated list of laptop equipment is provided in the More Information section for each laptop. |
|
Many of the laptops are configured for wireless internet access. Be sure to arrange for training on the wireless network if you plan to use it. |
Contact Doug Worsham, AV Services Coordinator (246 Van Hise Hall, 2-4965) if you have questions about use of the laptops.
If you are not certain you know how to set up and run the laptop in your classroom, try to find time for a test run of the equipment. Mediated classrooms in Van Hise can be reserved for ad-hoc use by asking your department secretary to contact Timetable and Classroom Scheduling (TACS).
In addition to the instructions on these pages, more detailed instructions are available in each room. You can also make an appointment with a staff member well in advance of the day that you plan to use the laptop. We can show you how to set up and use the laptop.
Since these laptops are intended for classroom use, we have included only basic presentation, word processing, audio/video, and web software on them.
If you are wondering about a specific plugin or software package, contact a staff member. Remember that software and file additions are performed at your own risk and will deleted automatically on re-boot.
