We have recently upgraded our audio-visual facilities within College and can now offer three rooms with fully functional technology. The Cassidy Quad is equipped with a 98” UHD screen and premium sound system allowing both wired and wireless connection. This is ideal for conferences, presentations and video playback to an audience of up to 100 people.

Two of our libraries are fitted with 65” UHD screens and speakers, with the Williams Library also offering a hybrid meeting/conference facility with ceiling mounted microphones and an advanced camera to allow for online meetings and teleconferences.
