Computing Service Sales is on floor 2 of the Cockcroft Building, next to Reception and the Help Desk. This contains a searchable catalogue which is updated daily and gives details, including prices, of all products available from Software Sales. It also allows users to create an Order Enquiry form, the first step in obtaining software from Software Sales, and then to send it directly to Sales. N.B. Documentation and media may only be issued up to the number of licences registered with the Computing Service. This means that unless you or your institution already have a licence to cover your use, you may not order media or documentation unless you also order a licence.
Further explanation is available.
If you are new to the University or are not familiar with institutional volume licencing programs, you may wish to begin the process by reading some background information on volume licencing and the process of obtaining software from the Computing Service. This will explain the reasons for some of the apparent limitations on what may be obtained through the Computing Service. Other ways of getting software Certain software is available for without charge to members of the University. A useful starting point for PC and Macintosh software available over the Internet is the UK Mirror Web site. Software which is not available on the Internet or through Software Sales will have to be purchased from commercial retailers.
