Equipment/Technology:

Computers:
The IRC offers eight (8) Dell desktop computers to DSU students, faculty, staff, and community members. DSU students, faculty, and staff may gain computer access by entering their university username and password. Community members must register for computer access at the Reference or Serials Desk by presenting a valid driver’s license or state issued photo identification card. No other forms of ID will be accepted and patrons must be 17-years-old to register. Each patron will receive a personal username and password that allows 90 minutes of computer usage per day. All patrons are urged to log off once they have completed their session to protect account information.

Computer Hardware:
Iomega Zip Drive: this drive can handle 100MB and 250MB zip disks; available for 3-day checkout.

Cameras:
Digital Cameras: We have two (2) cameras available for 3-day checkout to DSU students, faculty, and staff. Digital Video Cameras: We have four (4) Kodak Zi8 digital video cameras available for 7-day checkout to DSU students, faculty, and staff.

Headphones:
We have four (4) pairs of headphones that may be checked out for two hours at a time. DSU students, faculty, and staff may check out headphones by presenting their Okra Kard. Community members, age 17 or older, may check out headphones by presenting a valid state-issued ID (no other form of identification will be accepted).

Photocopy machine:
Our copier is located inside the door to the left. Copies are $0.10 per page for 8 1/2 x 11 or 8 1/2 x 14. Payment must be made with a DSU Okra Kard or a guest card. A guest card costs $1.00 and value must be added to it at the Card Value Center located in the Reference Department of the Roberts-LaForge Library in order to activate the card.

Typewriter:
A typewriter is available for filling out applications, forms, or envelopes.

Scanners:
We have three scanners available for patron use: two flat-bed scanners and one page-feed scanner. Scanning is free but patrons are responsible for saving their material or paying to print it.

Poster Printer:
Print full-color posters and banners. Our poster printer is capable of printing items up to two feet wide (24”). We can print from the following programs: Microsoft Publisher, PDF, and Power Point. Patrons are expected to create the poster or banner on their own. The IRC will print the poster, but is not responsible for any user errors.
