Logging in to Computers in the Library

  • All users must use your last name, the first three letters of your first name, and your middle initial.
  • For students the password uses the number 20, your Senator number (aka S-number) followed by a zero. Senator numbers include the letter "S" (without quotation marks), so the letter "S" must be included
  • Example:  John Edward Smith, Senator number S11223333
    smithjohe
    20S112233330

If you are not connected while in the Library, see the Lab Assistant or go to the Reference desk on the second floor and report the problem.
