Reservations
Media Lab computer workstations are available on a first-come, first serve basis. When Media Lab workstations are full, there is no "waiting list".
Media Lab computer workstations must be "checked out" at the Media Resources Desk, using your current library-registered RebelCard ID. Please fill out a "Computer Pass" form. The check out period is 4 hours and may be renewed for an additional 4 hours.
Occasionally a workstation will be reserved for staff use; please be prepared to log off if asked to do so.
