Green Library Clusters - Information Center

IC iMac Cluster: In the IC, there are six iMacs (running OS X 10.3.9) available for patron use. To reach this cluster on the first (1st) floor of Green East, proceed past the Information Desk and the Current Newspaper shelves and turn right at the green statue (or ask for directions at the Information Desk.) SUNet ID is required to use these computers.

IC PC Cluster: Also located in the same area as the iMac cluster are 12 (13 including the scan station listed below) new pc computers. These Dell SX280's have a number of applications available to aid in patron research production. Patrons will also be able to search the Internet and access Stanford mail via WebMail.

Note: All machines have CD-RW/DVD drives and USB ports to plug in flash (thumb) drives.

Scan Station: Green Library--Information Center now has two (2) Scan Stations for our patrons to use. The stations are located in the PC/iMac cluster. There is a scanner attached to one of the PC's and the other is attached to an iMac. The scan station can only be accessed by those with a valid SUNet ID. Software available for patrons to use is as follows:

• Abbyy Fine Reader --> (PC Only) OCR scanning and format converting software.
• Epson Scan --> Can be used instead of Abbyy but doesn't have as good an OCR feature as does Abbyy.
• ReadIRIS
• (Additional software loaded on the scan stations can be found here-- PC|Mac)

Scanning documentation can be found next to the scan station.
