The Multimedia Production Space in Room 220B Sullivant Library is part of the Sullivant Learning Commons.
We have 12 G5 Macintosh workstations, 6 of them with dual monitors and all of them with ergonomically designed (which means “comfortable”) chairs.
And we have graduate and undergraduate assistants to help you with your multimedia needs.
One really valuable asset of our lab is the 36″ color plotter/printer for producing up to 36″x48″ posters (HP DesignJet 1055). You can find the size and price information in our plotting tutorial (http://library.osu.edu/sites/mps/plotter/).
