Computer Labs
Introduction
IT Services operates a number of computing labs across campus, containing P.C.s running Windows XP. The labs can be booked by lecturers for teaching purposes and are available for general access when not booked. To find when labs are booked, consult the relevant document at https://internal.lboro.ac.uk/diss/avs/uniwide/LabReports/ (restricted). There are computers in the Library, Haslegrave, and Bridgeman buildings which cannot be booked and are therefore permanently available for open access use.
Outside normal building opening hours most labs can be accessed using your identification card. S006 Chemical Engineering uses keypad access - the combination on the keypad is changed weekly. To find the latest code consult the Door Keypad Access page www.lboro.ac.uk/it/labs/door.html.
If you would like to use the hearing loop and microphones in the large labs, please visit the Help Desk on Haslegrave Level 3 (top floor) N.3.12 to sign out a key.
Some departments operate their own computer labs, often in conjunction with IT Services. This ensures that all labs work in the same way, and you can easily move from one to another. You should consult the Labs Contacts page https://internal.lboro.ac.uk/it/uniwide/info/labs/contacts.html for further information and help.
If you are an IT Support person requiring additional information on supporting labs, please e-mail IT.Services@lboro.ac.uk.
Computers in the Library (www.lboro.ac.uk/library/services/it.html) are available to all students and staff.
Engineering Faculty labs (www.lboro.ac.uk/eng/it/hardware.html) are available mainly for those in that faculty.
