A question for the list...  how do you handle computer workshop
registrations? 

We have a computer lab with 12 computers we use for computer workshops. 

We require pre-registration for the workshops, 

but lately we have had a rash of non-attendance which leaves numerous
empty computers during the workshops. 

It becomes difficult to justify closing the lab to "public use" with
only 5 computers in use during the workshops. 

 

My question, how do other libraries handle this problem?
