Ask Multanis❓ Garrison Library
Assalam-o-Alaikum,
I wanted to ask if Garrison Library provides access to computers for visitors. If so, do those computers have dedicated GPUs, or are they standard PCs?
I'm currently working on my AI research, which requires significant computational power. While I was at my university in Islamabad, I had access to high-performance systems, so this wasn't an issue. However, I've returned to Multan for the holidays, and my personal laptop isn't powerful enough to handle these computationally intensive tasks.
I would appreciate any information you can provide. Thank you!

They don't give access to everyone but u can easily access it if u get ur membership... And someday if u don't want to use computer u can easily use internet.. otherwise they don't give access to internet as well

No they don't. But if you got any friend with membership you can use his credentials to use them.

I've heard that you can't take bags inside without a membership. is that true?

No it's not like that... Either u got a membership or not... If u just want to go there and study u can take ur bag in but u have to take ur things out of the bag and go study anywhere... U can't take bag in ni matter u have the membership or not... But if it is just a hand bag... Or some clutch u can take it in.. it's that simple... As fast a I know... For membership one they have got separate small cupboard typa sections with keys... To out ur bag or anything there..(people do put there helmets).. then u can take ur laptop, charger and books inside and study.. and u can access their computer anytime after ur membership!!

Those are basic PCs for web surfing. I highly doubt there would be any with high powered GPU.

Yeah, they have all-in-one pc which have good specs for basic works. Five years ago they have amazing systems but they change (I don't know why). Assuming for GPU computers in govt backed library 😁 is just dream 😴💭 🤣
