Library Lab
Do you need a computer lab for your students to research and work on assignments? NWACC Library lets current faculty and staff reserve our computer lab for independent classroom instruction. The Library's computer lab features 24 student computers, an instructor computer, a digital projector, a SMART Board, and Internet access. Reservations for the lab are provided on a first-come, first-serve basis. Faculty members are allowed up to three pending lab reservations per course section at a time, while staff members and departments are permitted a total of three open reservations at a time. This policy is designed to ensure fair and equal access to the lab throughout each semester. Contact Joel Tonyan, or fill out the Library Lab Reservation Form if you would like to reserve the lab for independent use.
Technology Assistance
Are you having trouble viewing a movie or using a computer in your classroom? The Library's Multimedia Specialist offers limited troubleshooting assistance with multimedia and computer equipment on the main NWACC campus. Contact Bo Darde if you need basic assistance with technology in your classroom. He also provides troubleshooting assistance and training for any of the circulating equipment available through the Library. For networking problems and other more serious equipment issues, contact the college's Information Technology Services department.
Video Recording
Are you organizing or participating in an on-campus event that you would like captured to video? The Library's Multimedia Specialist, Bo Darde, can film the event for you and record it to DVD or upload it to a streaming video service such as YouTube or Vimeo. Fill out a Video Recording Request or contact Bo Darde prior to the event to check whether he is available to film it for you. If you would prefer to film it yourself, the Library has video cameras and tripods available for current faculty and staff.
