Computing and Media Services: Computers

See also: Computing and Media Services, Computer-Aided Instruction, Computing Resources, Classrooms

Computing and Media Services maintains computers at both the Dana Biomedical Library and the Matthews-Fuller Health Sciences Library for curriculum support, information research and general use. The primary purpose of the computer clusters in the Biomedical Libraries is to provide DMS students access to computer based and networked teaching resources used in the curriculum.

Hardware
Our inventory includes both Macintosh and Windows computers, local laser printing, and scanning stations. We also provide computer and projection support for the Libraries classrooms. Each Library also has a multimedia cart for use in the rooms. See our classroom and multimedia carts pages for more information.

Software
Word processing, spreadsheet, graphics, presentation, and communications software is made available where appropriate and as it supports the mission of the Biomedical Libraries. In addition to these applications, a wide range of curriculum-based computer-aided instructional (CAI) material is also available, either pre-installed on the cluster computers or from the Computing and Media Services desk in Dana or the Information Desk at Matthews-Fuller. See Computer-Aided Instruction for more information on these items.

Computing and media equipment is available during the libraries' hours of operation.
