Supporting University Library Services

Many of D-Tech’s university clients are currently using computeIT – our self-service laptop and device solution – to deliver 24/7 access to online and digital learning resources to their students.

computeIT allows your students to borrow, and return, laptops, or similar devices such as tablets and iPads, at any time simply by using their student ID card. computeIT is a 24/7 capable solution. So, if your physical library or knowledge services are open to students 24/7, you can now give them secure, round the clock access to your digital resources too. Plus, because computeIT integrates with your user account network, your staff have continuous access to your device loan records via a web-based portal.

With its steel chassis and ID access, computeIT operates as a secure charging location when your facility’s devices are not in use – and ensures they are fully-charged when your students need them.

computeIT is a modular system, starting from 12 device bays, so can be tailored to suit the requirements of any learning facility, and its user bays are designed as the optimum size to cater for most makes and models of laptop, netbook, PC tablet or iPads.
