Chalk & Wire

If you are a student interested in training for Chalk & Wire, please visit the list of I.T. Training Sessions. The Information Commons will be supporting use of Chalk & Wire, but not actually performing initial training. That will be done in the I.T. Training Sessions and in individual classes as professors begin to use it.

New Library Website!

Library Website Updated

The Butler Libraries have updated their website this summer. Any faculty using links to library webpages or screenshots in a syllabus should please verify them before finalizing the syllabus. LibGuides, RSS feeds, and links to databases have not changed.

New Computers in Irwin

There are now computers available to students in every quad/section of Irwin Library. We've had to use the built-in wireless capabilities of the iMacs to install some of them, which meant removing all Macs from the Reference Lab area. The end result is six more computers available to library patrons in different parts of the building.

Current Summary:
Basement: 2 PCs and 2Macs in the Education Commons, 1 Mac in the Rich Media Room, 2 PCs in the General area (where the newspapers used to be)
Main Floor: 25 PCs in the main lab (1 with Scanner), 1 group workstation in the back of the Reference Collection, 2 group workstations in the Collaborative Learning Spaces
2nd Floor: 1 PC in SE quad, 2 wireless Macs (1 usable as a group workstation) in SW quad, 1 PC & 1 wireless Mac (group workstation) in NW quad, 1 PC in NE quad
3rd Floor: 1 PC in NW quad, 1 wireless Mac in NE quad
