Laptops Available in Grangegorman Library

Do you need to work on a project but don't have a laptop, or can't get access to the PCs in the library?
The library has 15 laptops available for students to borrow for use in the library only. You can print using Datapac's Upload a Document service- see ditprint.ie
The laptops are automatically connected to the internet via Eduroam.
You will need to save work to a memory stick as you will not be able to save any work to the laptops.
They can be borrowed for 3 hours at a time and can only be used within the library or the group study rooms.

We hope that students will find the laptops an excellent resource.
