The OIT fee also entitles students to an account on an OIT host. Faculty and staff are required to have a valid UMass picture ID with a current Staff sticker, available at the 3rd floor Whitmore Information Desk. Diskettes are available from the University Store and the Student Union Munchies Store. Making a backup copy of all work on a second diskette is highly recommended. Help Consultants are available in each of the areas to check out materials and to assist clients with machine malfunctions and basic software problems.
Manuals are also available.
Reservations Reservations are recommended during public hours. Reservations must be made in person. Cancellations will be taken over the telephone. Students may make reservations for one two-hour block of time and are limited to three hours a day and six hours a week of reserved time. Generally, students are able to work beyond these limits during the times the classrooms are not busy.
