Libraries Get More Lab Computers

For those of you who have waited for a computer in the libraries because they were all being used, the solution has arrived: More Computers.

There are now 6 more lab computers in Irwin Library and 2 more in the Ruth Lilly Science Library. At Irwin, we have spread them throughout the building. Here are the locations:
  • One more in the Music & Fine Arts Reference area.
  • One in the basement by the newspapers.
  • One on the second floor in the A-D section.
  • One on the second floor in the E-HJ section.
  • One on the second floor in the M-N section.
  • One on the third floor in the P-PR section.
We hope this better facilitates your computer usage both as individuals and as groups.
