At South Windsor High School, the Media Center has stationary 23 desktops in the library. We offer 10 Chromebooks, 4 laptops and 3 iPads for in school use. This month each teacher will get a Chromebook. In the fall (if the budget passes), Chromebooks will be issued to grade 9 and 10 students. There is a computer lab adjoining the Media Center and 5 labs in the rest of the building. We are in charge of 2 mobile computer carts that are used here or in other parts of the building. Several department have their own Chromebook carts. The Media Center has 4 scanners and 2 printers (1 color and 1 b&w) There are 2 digital video editing stations in the Maker Space.
Other equipment: We have 4 carts with computers and projectors that are used in the Media Center, in classrooms and in the auditorium. Two flat screen televisions on a cart are also available. We have 25 Nook readers. Students and staff can check out 12 digital cameras and 15 camcorders. Our 24 headphone sets are very popular.
Good luck with your project.

Oh, forgot IN-HOUSE Library Computers.... The Library has a lab of 28 Win PCs available to sign up for any period. Sometimes two teachers split the lab. Then there are an additional 10 up to date PCs in pairs around the Library open use area, and two IMACs (one 2 yrs old and one 8 yrs. old. Plus we have one older purchased in 2012, XP PC with Video Editing Adobe Premier set on the side primarily for video editing. Plus 6 NETBOOKS and 6 individual chromebooks we can load out to students in the library during their study periods, or a teacher can sign out and take to a classroom for small group work.

Our library learning commons has 29 Mac desktops, 3 Dells and a laptop cart of 22 mac's. There is a classroom off the library with a cart of 30 chrome books. That classroom can be signed out to use with or without the chrome books (but they stay in this room).
There are 3 mac labs for teacher sign-out and a writing room for student use during study halls. There are 3 more additional mac laptop carts for teacher sign up. Guidance and science each have an iPad cart. Hope this helps!

Nonnewaug High School just went 1:1 this year with Chromebooks in all four grades.
Teachers can sign out:
* 2 carts of newer Dell laptops - 25 per cart - used by students to print (Chromebooks do not have printing capabilities here)
* 1 cart of 25 iPads
* 12 hardwired desktop computers in the LMC (teachers can reserve that part of the LMC)
* 3 laptop/projector combinations
* 2 large Bose speakers with various inputs - used for events needing sound amplification
Document cameras and SMART boards stay in the individual classrooms.
Additionally, the history department has their own Chromebook cart. The foreign language department has their own iPad cart. The English department has their own laptop cart.
Side note - The library has a Chromebook cart that used to be signed out by teachers. Since the release of Chromebooks this year, the library's Chromebook cart stays in the library. Teachers now send individual students down to sign out Chromebooks when they forget theirs at home. These also serve as loaner Chromebooks when kids' devices are sent out for repair.
Hope that helps!

Hi,
I am collecting data on digital resources in the library/learning commons
at the HS level.
Would our HS folks mind sharing out what they have as far as number of
desktops, laptop carts, chrome books, iPads, etc...Are the library digital
resources in addition to labs, carts, etc... assigned to/used by
departments?
In our library, we currently have 30 desktops as well as carts of laptops
we sign out to teachers and students. These library resources are in
addition to other digital resources that our school has that are
department controlled. We have four labs (one shared by language and math;
the English dept. lab, general lab open for teachers to sign out (such as
science/social studies) and the last lab used solely by the business
dept.). The only other digital resources we have are a cart of laptops in
our Bridges program, cart of laptops in life skills, and a cart of iPads
in our resource dept. Lastly, we have numerous iPads that are assigned to
students who sign up for Honors and AP Level classes.
Are there any other devices such as document cameras, digital cameras, or
other types of devices that the library/learning commons has that are
signed out to teachers and/or students? (TVs, LCDs when Smartboards go
down...)
As always, any information any of you could provide on this would be very
much appreciated!!! :)
