LTS presents on summer changes Library and Technology Services (LTS)

Chief Information Officer Ravi Ravishanker discussed the recent changes for LTS. In light of the spring survey, LTS sought to tackle the printing and network connection issues over the summer. For printing, the switch from the large MFD machines to the new HP printers sought to ease printing woes. The issues with network connection to Wellesley Secure are as a result of the buildings. However, there are boosters that can help the issue. If you are experiencing issues connecting to the Internet, email Ravishanker so LTS can start to address connectivity issues. LTS has created a new course browser that has a new design and is more compatible with phones and tablets. LTS is currently working on getting the spring course list published and a waitlist function is currently in the works. Additionally, LTS is looking to do more academic programming in Clapp Library and find additional uses for the space. Answers to frequently asked questions can be found on LTS’ website.
