Booking guidelines

When booking, the following guidelines apply:

• You can make bookings from any computer at Holmesglen (not off-campus).

• Bookings may be made up to 7 days in advance, for a maximum of 1 hour per session. You can make up to 2 bookings in total, and these can be consecutive.

• If you need more time, once you have used your 2 booked hours for the day, you can use any PC that does not have a current booking.

• Your booking will be cancelled if you are more than 15 minutes late.

• You can delete a booking before your session.

• You cannot make a booking on behalf of another person.

• Booking screens are updated every 90 seconds as new bookings are added.

• You can ‘walk up’ to a PC and use it without booking it, provided the computer hasn’t been booked for someone else or they are more than 15
minutes late.

• You will receive 3 warnings at 10, 5 and 3 minutes before your session ends. The PC will log out at the end of your session.

• You must save your work before the session ends. Use your S: drive or your own portable USB memory stick to save your files.

• Before your session ends you may get an option to extend it to make a total booking time of 2 hours for this session if the computer is not booked by another person.

• If you leave your computer unattended for 15 minutes or do not press a key during that time, the PC will log you off automatically and you will lose your booking (e.g. if you go to the printer and take longer than 15 minutes).

• Computers in the group discussion rooms cannot be booked.

• If a student is sitting at a computer you have booked, tell them politely that you have booked the PC. If you have difficulty asking the student to move, our staff will be happy to assist you.
