:: Multimedia Room & Equipment Orientations ::
Multimedia room and equipment orientations are provided by MDS and are required for all users who wish to take advantage of the audio-visual resources available in those facilities. The group representative who participates in the orientation becomes the 'key operator' for all group functions in that facility. Orientations typically last 10 minutes or less.
To schedule an orientation, call 756-7198.
Important:
- Requests for orientations must be made at least 48 hours prior to your group's event.
- 'Just-in-time' orientation requests immediately
prior to group's meeting will be billed at the MDS
hourly rate per Room Use
Policy.
- If your group desires to use a notebook computer for your meeting, plan on bringing that notebook to the orientation for configuration and testing.
- While we will make a valiant attempt to integrate a users' personal or departmental notebook computer for classroom use, MDS technicians are not responsible for diagnosing a user's software application, media players or computer hardware.
