Computer Lab
The computer lab is located on the ground floor of Pitts Library in room 118 which houses:
- eight PC and two Mac work stations for use by students, faculty, and staff of the School of Theology
- two black and white laser printers and one color ink jet printer
- A scanner/copier and fax machine are available to use on request.
There is a charge for printing, which is 10¢ per page for black and white and 25¢ per page for color. If lab users wish to use their Emorycard for printing charges, there is an option to print to the 3rd floor computer lab and use their card.
Software includes Microsoft Office 2007, Bible Works 7, Emory Online Services, Internet Explorer, Mozilla Firefox, GenoPro and Endnote. If your personal computer does not have Microsoft Office, save your documents in RTF format in order to access your file in the lab.
Additional computers are available on the 3rd floor of the library and in Brooks Commons of Cannon Chapel. There are also Mac kiosks on the 2nd – 5th floors of the CST building which contain a web browser. From these you can access email, blackboard and the internet but wordprocessing is unavailable.
Currently, there are no printing options in the CST building.
