Lab Print Solution: How to print, scan to email, and copy

Deep Freeze software is installed improving the reliability of lab computers, especially those in high-use areas and increasing the overall availability of working machines in the library. Deep Freeze is a piece of software that 'saves' the computer's configuration, settings, etc. Anyone can change the desktop, install/delete programs, change software configurations, etc., but on restart, the computer returns to the original settings. Save your work often!

  • Macs, individual editing suites, and video capture spaces are available in the first floor New Media Center.

  • Temporary installation of software as required to complete class assignments is permitted on the workstations located in the 2nd and 3rd floor labs. For assistance, contact Library Automation (automation@valdosta.edu or 333-5868.). If working in any of the New Media Center spaces, then check in with any of the  NMC staff members for support.
    • Loading New Software: All software must be loaded by the Library Automation Staff. Faculty may contact automation@valdosta.edu, providing proof of licensing and master copies of the software. It is recommended that you allow at least two full business weeks in advance because of the testing and loading that accompanies the loading of any new software. Although rare, sometimes software cannot be loaded because it causes conflicts with the campus standard application suite.
