Catalog 2011–2012 Semester-long reservations are available for those who will need services during every class period. Be sure to exclude class days that you know media equipment will not be required, such as field work days or exam days, and do include make-up days from snow or holiday interruptions. Canton requests will continue to be handled through Canton Media Services in the Canton library and on extension 2622. Overhead projectors and screens are available for most classrooms and would not require a reservation under normal circumstances. If your room is without an overhead projector, cart, or screen, please call Media Services. If you are planning a major campus event such as a workshop or conference, please schedule a meeting with Media to plan your event’s needs. Because it may become necessary to use a significant amount of equipment or specialized technology for your event, a meeting with media staff will permit planning ahead for unforeseen needs such as equipment rental, licenses, or permits. Training The Media staff offers training in the use of all classroom equipment. All faculty and staff wishing to use multimedia projectors, camcorders, built-in media systems, or laptop PCs are required to take a one-time brief training session in the safe operation of this technology. Please call the campus reservation number (ext. 1427, Brockton or ext. 2622, Canton) to schedule a session. Office hours are 8:30 a.m. to 5:30 p.m. Normal operating hours are Monday through Thursday from 7:30 a.m. until 10:00 p.m. and Friday until 5:00 p.m. Coverage in Brockton extends through Saturday, 8:00 a.m. to 1:00 p.m. Ordering Services—Conference Center Conference Center media reservations are handled by the Conference Center staff.
