Cluster Computers
The Swain Library has 13 dual-boot Mac/Windows computers (3 in the computer room near library entrance, 1 on the circulation desk, and 9 in the back reading room). SUNet ID required for use. Software available includes:
Cluster computers with the same software on them are also available in Meyer, Green, and some branch libraries; Tresidder Union and some student Community Centers; and the student residences.
Reference Room Computer
There is one dual-boot iMac computer with a scanner attached. It has the same software on it as the cluster computers plus some scanning software. A SUNet ID required for use.
Library Kiosks
Three thin-client Linux Kiosks for catalog searches and access to library resources are available at Swain. Two are located on the right side after you enter the library and a third one is located on the right end of the circulation desk. These computers are available to visitors and users with SUNet IDs.
