Media Computer Center Policy

 

Policy Number:

Policy Title:

Use of Media Equipment on Weekends and Evenings

Policy Description:

This policy provides the procedure for obtaining equipment from the Media Computer Center after normal business hours.

 

 

General

All Media equipment should be requested fourty-eight hours in advance of the time it will be scheduled for use.

Emergency Requests

Situations arise which require the use of media equipment in the classroom on short notice. Usually, these requests can be processed promptly. However, requests that are made during the evening hours or on weekends when the Audio Visual Technician is not on duty can be difficult to fill.

After Hours Requests (Evenings)

A student worker is scheduled to staff the Help Desk in the Media Computer Center from 4:00 PM until closing. The initial request should be made to this employee. If the student worker is unable to promptly fill the request for any reason, he/she should contact the Audio/Visual Technician at his home, by telephone, for advice. If the Audio/Visual Techncian is unavailable, the student worker should seek advice from the Library Technician who is on duty at the Circulation Desk.

After Hours Requests (Weekends)

Weekend requests, like all others, should be made at least fourty-eight hours in advance of the time of scheduled use. If unforeseen circumstances require additional equipment, equipment repair, lamp replacement, etc., the Audio/Visual Technician should be consulted by telephone. If the A/V Technician is unavailable, the Information Media Specialist should be contacted.

If it is necessary for the Audio/Visual Techncian to be called in to work to fill a request for Media Equipment after hours, a request must be made through his supervisor, Larry Kellerman, at 829-5915, in order to  meet applicable terms of the AFSCME contract.

Unauthorized Removal and Use of Media Equipment

Faculty and staff of Central Lakes College, including employees of the Maintenance Department, are not authorized to remove media equipment from the Equipment Room (E418) or from other classrooms to satisfy last-minute requests by persons conducting classes, workshops, etc. during evening or weekend hours. All requests made to maintenance staff should be referred to the Audio/Visual Technician.
