Narrative
The FAU Boca Raton Campus Library would like to expand the number of iMacs which are in frequent use in the Computer Commons (LY 215) from 4 to 24 by purchasing 20 new iMacs. All 20 iMacs would include media software (Final Cut Suite / Pro Apps) and 10 iMacs would include robust graphic design software (Adobe Suite). Graphic design software for students has been requested by the faculty of Arts and Letters and will help even the playing field by providing FAU students in Boca Raton the same access to design software as FAU students currently have in Davie and Ft. Lauderdale.
This expanded iMac Lab will provide an enhanced computing environment for student to work on projects individually and collaboratively.
