Learning Support Services InfoLab

The LSS InfoLab (464 Van Hise Hall) is open to all UW students needing to work with faculty-assigned courseware, word processing, and WiscWorld services. It contains 33 PCs and 10 Macintoshes. The lab hours are limited to weekdays only. Printing is available with a Debitcard. You can also bring in your own laptop to print a document.

The LSS InfoLab recently replaced all our PC and Macintosh laptops with dual-booting MacBooks. The new laptops are now available for checkout.
