~ Kelly, Library Media Specialist As of this morning, the Lyons New Media Centre has rolled out its new booking system. All you need is your MacID and password to login to the new system, then just start booking things like you normally would.
The big change in the new system is the ability to reserve bookings for camera equipment through this system. Prior to this, a Google form had been filled out and there was no calendar available to see what was available versus not available. With this new system, each camera, tripod and even the portable green screen can be seen in a calendar type of view and reserved easily. The procedure remains the same, however -- until you receive that confirmation email from Lyons staff telling you the camera equipment is booked, it is not booked. Please note that the system adds a 30 minute buffer on the start and another one at the end of camera equipment bookings to allow time to check the camera equipment, charge batteries, etc. The gaming stations, edit studios and the newly renamed presentation practice space (formerly the consultation room) can be booked in the same fashion, but the bookings for these are automatic, just like the old system. Please note that when you go into Schedule > Bookings on the site, the navigation is along the top, not the left side. The left box is for filtering your results. The navigation to change from the room schedule to, say, the gaming schedule, is handled with a drop-down menu to the right of the schedule title (see the image above). Don't forget to fill out the handy-dandy (and very short) survey about the new system! ~ Kelly, Library Media Specialist Yes, that's correct... the audio recording booth at Lyons is NOW OPEN.
The booth includes:
You can book the audio recording booth online, but don't forget to check out the policy/procedures page too. Happy recording! ~ Kelly, Library Media Specialist Just a quick note to share our changing hours for the mid-term break that start this Saturday:
~ Kelly, Library Media Specialist Recently, CFMU caught up with Rhonda Moore, manager of the Lyons New Media Centre, for their latest installment of "Sixty Seconds". Check it out!
~ Kelly, Library Media Specialist You may have heard through the grapevine that Lyons was getting its very own audio recording booth... well, the rumours are right!
However, it's not quite ready just yet. But soon! We are looking to make it available for booking requests as of the end of the month of February. Watch for further news and details as they unfold! When it is available, we will post about it here, on social media, and it will be added to our bookings page. |
