Library Computer Lab

The computer lab and computer classroom are located on the Underwood Law Library’s third floor near the elevator. The lab and classroom contain 40 desktop PCs, two high-speed laser printers, and Westlaw and Lexis printers. Each lab PC is equipped with a DVD-RW drive so you can use writeable DVDs or CDs to backup your data. You can also copy your data to a USB flash drive (see Figures 1 and 2 below). For your convenience, blank USB flash drives and CD-R's are available for purchase at the library’s circulation desk. There are five laptop computers available at the library’s circulation desk for law student use inside the library.
