Narrative
In line with the commitment to provide an optimal learning environment for our students, Florida Atlantic University Libraries is embarking on a crucial initiative to replace the aging Dell Desktop computers currently installed in the study rooms at the Jupiter John D. McArthur Library. This proposal aims to enhance the study experience and equip our students with modern tools for academic success. Our library's study rooms have long been the backbone of focused academic work, but the existing technology requires an upgrade to meet the evolving needs of our students. The current Dell Desktop computers, while once effective, now present limitations in speed, reliability, and functionality, which hinder the academic pursuits of our students. We are seeking to acquire three Dell Micro PCs equipped with wall mounts to replace the outdated desktops. These new systems will offer substantial advantages in terms of improved functionality, responsiveness, and versatility, thereby facilitating a more conducive learning environment.
