Issue
Have you ever encountered a situation when you needed to use a lab computer, but you arrived and all of the computers were already in use? Looking for a quiet corner to study?
Well, thanks to a software program called LabSeat that was installed on our lab computers earlier this year, you can check computer availability in real time before you leave for the lab. This will be especially useful during busier times such as midterms and finals week as you can choose where to study by how many computers are available.
Manhattan College's Glance app will also have a link to LabSeat so it will be possible to check real time room availability on your cell phone.
Note the bar colors signify :
Green means go! Plenty of availability.
Yellow means 75% full
Red means 90% full
