Advanced Technology Lab (ATL)

The Advanced Technology Lab (ATL) is located on the lower level of the Charles E. Shain Library room A26. It is open during normal library hours. It provides audio, video, and graphics hardware and software for students to use for course-related and personal academic projects. It is also used to provide video editing and podcast production training to classes that will be using those applications for course projects. Other members of the campus community with a college network login can use the ATL when it is not in use by students.

The workstations in the ATL are available on a first-come, first-served basis. Faculty can reserve the ATL for an instructional technology session for one of their courses with a least one week's notice.
