Network outlets
Network outlets for student Internet access are available in all libraries, and some student offices. You can ask library staff for directions to your nearest network outlet. If you are a postgraduate student, you should ask your departmental administrator if there is a student Internet outlet in your office.
There are usually no outlets for staff Internet use in libraries and staff should use UO-STAFF Wi-Fi wireless access instead. Staff will normally use outlets in offices and meeting rooms.
If you are a guest or visiting academic, you should be able to locate a network outlet in your assigned office arranged by your sponsoring department prior to your arrival. If you have any problems, please contact the administration of your sponsoring department.
