Media

Multimedia presentations have come a long way since the slide projector. Today there's a lot more you can do to enhance your presentation and to keep an archival record of it, yet the equipment has become increasingly expensive and complicated to operate. Fortunately, your class or organization does not have to buy thousands of dollars worth of gear and read hundreds of pages of instruction manuals—instead you can just hire professionals to take care of these needs for you.

Science Center Lecture Media Services a.k.a. The Prep Room

The Prep Room provides media services exclusively for the Lecture Halls and classrooms of the Science Center. We are located in the Basement of the Science Center, in room SC B-01. Make requests by phone at (617)-495-5357 or via email at prep@fas.harvard.edu. Requests should be made in advance and include all information relating to the class or event.

The Prep Room also operates the Electronics Shop, which handles repairs for all audio-visual equipment used in support of FAS courses, as well as repair and maintenance of all Science Center classroom and laboratory equipment.
