The creation and support of the University's teaching environment is a joint responsibility of the Estates Department and Audio Visual Services and a rolling plan is in place to improve both the fabric and the technology in centrally booked teaching rooms.  The priority for putting fixed installations into individual teaching rooms is based on a number of factors:

• The difficulty in supporting particular accommodation from the perspective of both remoteness/access difficulties and technical cover.
• The Health and Safety implications of trailling leads and intrusive floor stands associated with temporary loan equipment in crowded teaching rooms.
• Frequency of current delivery of computer presentation systems from Media Services loan stock.
• User feedback from teaching staff.
• Image improvement.

There are currently over 100 centrally booked teaching rooms equipped with data projection facilities
