The library has twenty four public workstations. Twenty two of these are Internet-ready and have Microsoft Office XP. Other software products are available as well. Printing is available on these machines.
The remaining two are unrestricted workstations, meaning users can install their own software and access the core operating system. Printing is not available on the unrestricted machines.
You must check out a workstation at the circulation desk prior to use. Read the complete computer use policy for restrictions and suggestions on the use of all these workstations.
The library also has three dedicated OPAC (online public access catalog) workstations. These provide access to our online catalog. Printing is available on these machines as well.
The standard library workstations run Microsoft Windows 2000 Professional and provides access to the following software:
In addition, the user has access to a range of helper applications such as Adobe Reader 6.0, Form Flow, ICS Viewer, QuickTime PictureViewer, RealPlayer, and Windows Media Player.
All of the online databases are accessible from these workstations as well.
One of our unlimited workstations has the ability to scan and has a CD writer. The other unrestricted workstation does not have any software beyond the core operating system, the standard Windows programs, and a few helper applications. Users are free to install their own software products.
The library's public computers are networked to a single printer. In order to print any document, you will need to follow these instructions. The library staff strongly recommends that you have your printed copies in hand before closing your work.
Before you begin, observe the lower right hand corner of the screen. You should see among the icons three letters "OCS". If this icon is absent, it indicates that the computer is not on the print network and all print functions will be inoperable. Inform a member of the library staff if the icon is not present.
The print station is located opposite the circulation desk and adjacent to the online public access catalogs (OPACs).
There is a change machine located next to the OPAC computers which will change $1 and $5 bills. The library does not have a change box and cannot change larger bills.
The Print Station will keep your job for three hours before deleting it automatically.
We strongly recommend that you have your printing in hand before closing out your work at the workstation. Print jobs have been known to disappear into the cyberspace between workstation and print station.
