LabSeat: Find an Open Computer on Campus
Have you ever encountered a situation when you needed to use a lab computer, but you arrived and all of the computers were already in use? Looking for a quiet corner to study?
Direct Link:
https://go.manhattan.edu/labseat
Via the ITS website: https://inside.manhattan.edu/offices/its/computer-labs.php
Well, thanks to a new web application called LabSeat that was installed on our lab computers earlier this year, you can check computer availability in real time before you leave for the lab. This will be especially useful during busier times such as midterms and finals week as you can choose where to study by how many computers are available.
Access the LabSeat application to view computer availability via any of the methods below:
https://go.manhattan.edu/labseat
- Take a look at the list of labs and click on the lab you would like to view
Via the college's Quicklinks on the insidemanhattan.edu website or the Glance MC App, using any of the following search terms: computer, lab,LabSeat, etc. (Note Glance MC IOS users can save the link to their app Favorites)
Via the ITS website: https://inside.manhattan.edu/offices/its/computer-labs.php
Click on the arrow at the end of the room and you will see:
- A map of the Computer Lab
- Hours computer lab is open
- Classes scheduled in each classroom/open lab
