(Mar 18/12) I am extremely grateful for the extra study space on second floor Thode, however it is completely useless with out the plugs. In 2012, when most of the students work is online it is only logical to provide a study space with plugs for laptops. Students have to go on a hunt for plugs every single time before studying to ensure their laptops dont die while working on an assignments, and 8/10 times are disappointed.
Library response: Thanks for your comment. We do understand the need for power and are doing our best to get as many of these new workstations powered up as quickly as possible. The plan is that more than 2/3's if these workstations will have access to power.Our efforts are being somewhat derailed at the moment since students are taking apart the new furniture so we are spending valuable staff time hunting down missing parts, securing privacy screens permanently, etc. We are doing this on a daily basis.We will get back to the power installation as soon as we can. Thanks for your patience.
