Welcome to the University of Chicago Computer Science Department's Instructional Laboratories. Located in the Regenstein Library's A-level, we provide students, faculty, staff, and other university affiliates with a variety of computing services. On this website, you can learn more about the hardware and software for use, the lab's policies, and our computer training minicourses. You can also submit feedback about the lab or its staff.
Portions of the lab are reserved at certain times for labs which are part of computer science courses. During those times, students in that course have priority for using the lab facilities. You can view current reservations at right, or see them separately in formatted plaintext and HTML.
