Notes:
"When fully implemented over the next three years, InfoCommons
technology will employ a variety of configurations and computing capacity
including stationary desk top work stations like those found in University
Computing Labs (UCL’s), portable notebook type computers and specialized
computers capable of producing multimedia content.
To support optimal Internet access, the Hale Library building network
will be upgraded and wireless network infrastructure will be implemented.
In its initial configuration the InfoCommons will include approximately
100 workstations of various types including both stationary and portable
models. This number may expand in later phases pending evaluation
of user demand and available funding. Software applications and operating
systems available on this equipment will be identical to that currently
offered in CNS-operated UCL’s elsewhere on campus. Laser printing
will be provided through debit card-operated pay-for-printing services.
Maintenance and technical support of InfoCommons technology will be
provided by CNS computing lab support staff.
Library reference staff will continue to assist patrons with their
needs in finding and interpreting print and electronic information
resources. Reference centers are located on the Library’s First through
Third floors. In addition computer applications support staff, working
from the Second floor Reference Desk, will assist users with software-related
questions. When implemented, the specialized computing production
area will also be staffed to assist users with the software and equipment
provided there. " |
