Following a successful pilot last year, DTS and L3S are introducing a new Chromebook loan service from Monday 13 February. This service is for students to use while they are working in the library. Chromebooks are different from traditional laptops and many students find them better for studying than laptops or PCs. They are faster for connecting to the internet and working with files online and also have a longer battery life.
Please spread the word to students but also manage their expectations – these are great devices for many types of work but don’t contain the full suite of managed desktop software and can’t be taken out of the library. Visit the DTS blog for more information.
