Hours

Open hours for computer labs are published at the beginning of the semester and are always posted on or near the computer lab doors.

The labs are frequently reserved for classes, during which they are not available for general use. Upcoming special lab reservations are posted on or near computer lab doors as soon as they are available. NOTE: the lab hours posted on the Web are not as current as those posted at the labs themselves due to last minute reservations.

Computer labs are closed during official university holidays and semester breaks.
