"More computers in the Hargrave library"
"Have more computer workstations available for catalogue, word processing and
internet use, on each level."
"I recommend the
Berwick library to improve their computers and increase their numbers". |
- We are
providing more computers
Hargrave-Andrew Library will have another 80 computers
for general use added as part of the refurbishment due for completion
in semester 2, 2005. A new training room will also provide additional
computers.
- We have improved the computer/student ratio
In 2003 we set ourselves
a goal of having a minimum computer to student ratio of 1:70. We have
now achieved and in some libraries far exceeded this ratio. The
average ratio is 1:45, however we continue to remain vigilant and will strive to install more computers
in high demand areas within
space constraints.
"As each of our libraries come up for
refurbishment, improving access to computers is a high priority. Since
2003 we have made vast improvements to the number and placement of
computers in our libraries. Express terminals will be clearly
identified to facilitate quick searching of the catalogue".
