| Looking for a PC in The Sir Michael Cobham Library? |
A new service has just been launched which lets you see how many computers are currently free in The Sir Michael Cobham Library. The details are now showing on the wide-screen TV monitors on the Ground Floor of The Sir Michael Cobham Library. The system checks every two minutes to provide you with up-to-date information. (Computers in the MyPC booking system are not included). IT Services will very soon be launching a texting service about available PCs, so watch this space! |
