The Library Systems Department supports information technology used throughout the UO Libraries, both by library staff and library patrons. The nine members of the department maintain computer hardware and software for approximately 170 computers and laptops used by the library's patrons, more than 300 staff computers, and computers used in four library classrooms and manage the Computer Help desk in the Knight Library Learning Commons.
Department staff maintain and support a large suite of servers, including Web servers; staff application and file servers; Blackboard, the campus course management system; digital data storage servers; the library's integrated library system used for the library catalog; application servers running FindText and OneSearch; and Pharos, the campus pay for print system.
The department also manages the library's Web site and access to the library's collection of electronic resources, including databases, electronic journals and digital collections.
Library Systems provides technical support for the Center for Media and Educational Technologies; Scholarly Communications and Instructional Support; and the Orbis Cascade Alliance.
Systems offices are located on the west side of the first floor of the Knight Library (Room 132).
