We now have a total of ten High Tech Collaborative Group Study Areas in the lower level of the library adjacent to the Serials section. Our five new areas each include one 40 inch LCD, flat panel, Samsung monitor (wall mounted) with DVI and VGA connection cables and Internet connectivity via wireless or ethernet ports. The original five collaborative group study areas are still available as well, and they each include: one 26-inch LCD flat panel, Planar monitor with DVI, VGA and USB connection cables (wall mounted). Study groups are welcomed and encouraged to use our Collaborative Areas on a first come, first served basis. Laminated instructions are provided in each Collaborative Work Study Area for using the LCD, flat panel, Planar and Samsung monitors. We look forward to seeing many educational uses for these High Tech Wi-Fi spaces!
