Important Information about Editing Suite Booking Requests
- Completing the form below does not guarantee your booking. Staff
will check your request against suite availability and confirm your
booking with you.
- Online booking requests must be submitted at least 24 hours before
the booking start time.
- The editing suites may be booked for up to 3 hours per day by
VIU Students and employees.
- Pick up the keys to your booked suite at the Library Service Desk
just prior to your booking start time. Remember to bring
your Student or Employee ID card!
- Change or cancel a suite booking in person at the Library Service
Desk, by phone (740-6330), or by emailing library@viu.ca.
- The suites are available during Library
hours, ending one half-hour before Library closing time.
- You may not book the suite for any other purpose than video or audio editing.
- Book well in advance to ensure access to a suite.
- When you use a suite for the first time, you will need to meet
with a media technician for an orientation to the equipment. You
may attend a group orientation with your class or as a drop-in workshop,
or book a one-on-one orientation with a media technician at the
Library Service Desk when you book the suite for the first time.
Orientations may be booked between 1pm and 4pm weekdays.
Make sure you bring your video footage (on tape) or audio script
to your appointment with a media technician (the Video
Editing Suites have VCRs, so you will not need to bring a camera).
