Computers beginning to arrive today to get the new 200 seat computer suite ready for the student hordes next Monday.

But although it's going to be in the new extension, they've designed it so that it's not technically part of the library. All to do with the possibility of 24 hour opening for the computer center when the library is closed.

It's going to be interesting to see how much trouble it causes for the library to have no actual student PCs beyond the catalog machines, and for students who just want to use something quickly for reference to have to formally borrow it.

I can't believe we won't eventually end up with a least a few computers in here, but it's not part of the current plan.
