Wireless network access is available throughout the Central Library. Patrons with wireless-ready laptops and the appropriate network interface card are able to use Acorn and all web-based library databases, electronic journals, electronic books, and other research tools. Access to CD-ROM research tools is available at library workstations in the lobby or Reference area.

EQUIPMENT. Windows users should have a wireless-ready laptop with a network interface card. Network interface cards can be obtained from Network Computing Support.

PRINTING. Persons with Vumail accounts or other web-based email utilities can print documents saved on wireless-ready laptops by emailing the documents to themselves. They can then receive their emailed messages on library workstations in the lobby or Reference area and print to networked printers at these locations.

ASSISTANCE. Support for on-campus use of wireless technology is available at the ITS Help Desk.
