HSLS Update

New! Falk Library Classroom

After several months of construction, a new classroom on the first floor of Falk Library is nearing completion.  The room has cutting-edge equipment including ten widescreen Dell laptops and a state-of-the-art interactive SMART Board.  Although at first glance the SMART Board appears to be an ordinary white board, it performs like an oversized touch screen. By allowing computer applications to be controlled with a touch of the finger, this technology enables HSLS instructors to easily navigate between notes, presentations, and the Internet while interacting with students.

This new classroom will be used by HSLS librarians and staff to teach classes on topics such as software training or database searching.  See the class schedule for upcoming classes or visit <www.hsls.pitt.edu/services/instruction/calendar>.
