Guidelines for student events
The AV Support Team forms part of the Teaching and Learning Spaces Service,
providing support for teaching rooms and lecture theatres in and around LSE. We
also cover public lectures, large scale events and meetings taking place on
campus.
Equipment available
From data projectors to visualisers, the Teaching and Learning Spaces Service
supplies a wide range of audio-visual equipment for the LSE community. Please
note, however, that we do not supply equipment to be taken off campus, or for
external organisations.
All teaching rooms have either an OHP, or a visualiser as standard. Should
you wish to check the equipment available in your teaching room or lecture
theatre, please click here, and select the building
and room.
To request equipment, please use the
online request form.

Video conferencing
Video conferencing allows you to participate in a meeting or conference
anywhere in the world without the time and cost restrictions of attending in
person, thereby enabling you to manage time and cost more efficiently. We have a
dual-display setup, allowing you to participate in your conference, and view
yours, or your counterpart's presentation materials.
The video conferencing unit is also linked to U8 meaning that whole lectures
can be broadcast or alternatively an external presentation can be shown within
the 160 seat lecture theatre. Given LSE’s strong relationships with higher
education institutions and other organisations both in the UK and
internationally, we see this facility as a chance to develop new ways of linking
with academic and business partners, including inter-site courses and remote
real-time lectures. Video conferencing is also an environmentally-friendly
alternative to travelling to meetings offsite.
If you would like to view our facilities, or have a brief demonstration,
please do not hesitate to contact us.

Guidelines for student events
All equipment needs to be booked at least 72 hours before the event
and is subject to availability - the more notice the better. During
out-of-office hours, it can be made available for collection from Main Reception
and should be returned there. We provide all associated cables and stands. AV
support is only available between the office hours of 09.00-17.00 unless via
special arrangement (may require funding.) All booked equipment is your
responsibility, so please ensure you treat it carefully and return it in a
timely fashion.
Full guidelines on projection and audio
facilities are available (Word document).
