Computing in the Mulford Library
Library Workstations
The Mulford Library computers are primarily for research and education. The 13 workstations in the 4th Floor Online Resources Room and 9 workstations on the 5th Floor are equipped with web browsers (Internet Explorer and Firefox), basic utilities such as Adobe Acrobat Reader, and standard office applications such as word processors, spreadsheets, etc. Please see the Acceptable Use Policy for rules governing computer use.
In order to provide a secure network and to prevent illegal download activity of copyrighted materials from University Library computers, UTAD logins will be required to access most computer workstations within the library. Public access is available -- please see the staff at the Service Desk to be logged on to a workstation.
The Computer Learning Resource Center (CLRC) on the 6th Floor has 33 computers which are available to UT students and affiliates only. Please visit the CLRC website for full service details. (Page top)
Wireless Computing
All floors of Mulford Library are equipped with a wireless computing network. The library now uses PEAP or LEAP type authentication for security purposes, which may not work with every operating system or wireless card. More information configuring your Windows XP, Windows Vista, or Mac OSX laptop for connecting to the wireless network is available. Please note that wireless coverage may be reduced in some areas, especially near the outer walls of the building.
Laptops equipped with wireless cards may be checked out from the Mulford Library Service Desk for up to 3 hours. This service is available to UT students, faculty and staff (valid identification is required). Laptops cannot leave the building or be checked out overnight. Overdue fines are $20.00 per hour and a replacement charge of $3,000.00 will be assessed if the laptop is not returned in three days. Technical assistance with using the laptops is available from the Computer Learning Resource Center (CLRC) at Mulford Library. (Page top)
