B5 Computer Labs
Located in B519 and B520, are the main New Media teaching spaces. Because these labs are intended for processor-intensive or specialized tasks relating to New Media, these facilities contain specialized hardware and software not available in other labs on campus. When classes are not in session these facilities are open for student use. Those who are using the lab for word processing and other simple computing needs should, however, use other labs.
W700B Computer Lab
Located in the Asper Centre for New Media, W700B is a smaller computer lab that is equipped with 4 Cintiq Interactive Pen Displays and a large format scanner for animation. When classes are not in session, this facility is open for student use.
