Computer Lab Hours & Information

All Hours are subject to change.

There are occasions when labs and classes need to meet at special times which aren't part of the normal schedule. Alterations to these schedules will be posted on the doors of the computer labs as far in advance as possible.

For any questions about lab hours please contact the Bard Helpdesk 845-758-7500 or e-mail helpdesk@bard.edu.

The public computer labs are staffed with student lab monitors. These monitors are there to provide assistance with your computing needs. They can show you how to use most computer applications, as well as how to operate some of the computer equipment. Some monitors are more knowledgeable than others, but you can always contact the helpdesk if you have problems they can't help you with.
