Computer labs at UVic
University Systems and UVic Libraries provide computer labs for drop-in and classes. Facilities include resources for students and instructors like printing, scanning, AV equipment, and student-bookable spaces for meetings and creating media.
Locations
The map shows teaching labs, drop-in computing and media creation spaces that are available to all students and course bookings by default. Use the layers control to show facilities that are restricted to specific faculties or departments.
Real-time info
UVic's AllSight map has real-time info about the layout, availability and software of lab computers.
Note that availability in AllSight is only based on whether someone is signed in to a computer or not. It doesn't account for the operating hours of the lab/building or whether someone's using the desk (but not the computer). Computers labelled "off" may be out of order.
