Is Dragon available on the Library Loan Laptops?

Answer

Dragon Laptops

Dragon v15 is installed on the loan laptops in the blue cabinet. The laptops are not Assistive Technology computers but are installed with a selection of AT software: Dragon, EquatIO, MindView, MindGenius, Inspiration and TextHelp Read & Write. Laptops are available for loan through our self-service facility for up to 3 hours.

They do not come with a headset, so you will need to use your own headphones or borrow one from AV Loans.  Remember to set up a new audio source to your existing Dragon profile, if you are using a different headset (or mic setting) than the one you used when setting up your profile.

If this is the first time you are using Dragon in the Library, you will need to set up your profile first. The profile is saved to your home drive by default, so you can access your profile from any Library Dragon computer or laptop.

If you are not sure how to use Dragon or how to set up your Dragon profile, you can book a tutorial with the Assistive Technology Officer. See booking link below. 

When you return the laptop, ensure to connect it to the charger. If a Laptop is not fully connected to the power cable and the locker door fully locked, the Laptop will remain on your account and fines applied as this prevents other students from borrowing it.
