Classroom AV Services has traditionally kept a small quantity of products that could be loaned out to departments, faculty, and staff for use with University related events. Due to product age, reliability, availability, and other University options for equipment loans (University Library), we will stop supporting this service beginning January 1, 2024.

Physical media devices such as VHS, DVD, and Blu-ray players have been provided in all supported classrooms for many years now. Unfortunately, manufacturers have stopped producing these devices and we can no longer maintain an appropriate inventory or repair broken units. As new facilities come online and we upgrade existing spaces, we will be dropping these sources as options.

VGA has been a dominant and reliable laptop connection in the classrooms at Virginia Tech for a long time now, but we at Classroom AV Services will be phasing out this option moving forward. We have already been forced to drop this connection in newer installations, such as Data and Decision Sciences.

We are pleased to announce the launch of our online training modules through the PageUp LMS system. These modules were created to guide instructors through the use of a standard general assignment classroom audiovisual system, as well as streaming and recording lectures and meetings with Zoom.
