Note that only the red jacks are capable of accessing the law school network. Some jacks are available on table tops while others are built into the walls. Although study carrels appear to have network jacks, you must plug directly into the red jacks in the wall. You need an ethernet card in your laptop in order to access the law school network. The lab assistants in room 2390 will provide assistance configuring your laptop to use the network.
Lab assistants can also provide assistance installing ethernet cards.
Network Access from Public Workstations Some of the public computer workstations in the library are also connected to the law school network. Due to licensing restrictions, many of the Law Library's electronic resources must be accessed from the law school network. Therefore, you must be using one of these public workstations or another computer connected inside the law building to access them. The other type of public computer workstation available in the library is connected to the UW-Madison General Library System network. Several databases made available by the General Library System can only be accessed from this type of workstation or from a WiscWorld connection.
