General information

• There are currently only 2 video edit suites - 1 Windows (in Edit Room 1) and 1 Mac (in Edit Room 3) - and are available by appointment  through the University Libraries Scheduler Tool
• The 3rd edit suite (Edit 2) has been reassigned as a video digitization room and is also available by appointment
