Computer Lab Access
Two computer labs, which are open during Law Library
hours, are available to registered law students,
faculty, and staff. Food and drinks are
not allowed in the labs.
Hardware and Software
The computer lab in Room 168 of the Law Library is
equipped with 23 workstations, three laser printers,
and a scanner. Eight workstations, one laser
printer, and two Westlaw and Lexis-Nexis printers
are located in the Westlaw and Lexis-Nexis computer
room. All computer rooms are equipped with a variety
of software, including Microsoft Office 2003,
Lexis-Nexis, and Westlaw.
Laser printing is
available for $.03 per page in the computer labs.
Printing is charged through a vend-a-card reader
that users may obtain with a valid school ID card.
Visitors may print by obtaining a debit card from
the Library Director’s office.
A lab tech assistant is
available to help you if you experience any problems
while printing. However, you should think carefully
before using the printers as you will be charged for
all print jobs. At the beginning of the semester, you
will receive some free copies. At the end of each
semester, the copiers will be reset to zero. Please
put on your card only what you will use, there will
be no carry-overs.
The Westlaw and
Lexis-Nexis online services have their stand-alone
printers in the labs and you should route your print
jobs using these services to the appropriate
printers.
If you feel you should
not be charged for a particular print job, for
example, the printer jammed or ran out of toner, you
should ask the lab tech assistant.
