Employee Handbook
SOFTWARE There are four catagories of public computers in the HRC in terms of the software on the machine: scanning (2), video editing machines (3), music composition (4), and all the rest (17). The majority of the computers in the HRC have the standard suite of applications. These include Word, Excel, Powerpoint, Firefox, Adobe reader, iTunes, and Quicktime. There are also specialized language apps such as Gramma (Greek) and Sans faute/Grammaire (French). The two scanning machines have the Adobe suite, including Photoshop for editing images, Acrobat Pro for making pdf documents, OmniPage Pro for conveting scanned text to editable text (ocr) and some helper applications. The four machines in carrels 5 - 8 have the standard programs plus the music composition application Finale and sometimes other music software. Note: Finale is a large complicated program. For the most part, you will not be expected to be able to help Finale users with their problems (unless you want to learn the software yourself). Finally, the three computers in the video editing rooms have iMovie, iDVD, iTunes, and Audacity for editing and burning multimedia. They do not have the standard suite. At times during the semester there are numerous people needing these rooms and we want people to only use these rooms for digital editing.
