ITSS has redesigned its Publications page to be a new, comprehensive site for publications and documentation that simplifies finding documentation. The site's new focus lists items by service categories, rather than by the ITSS organizations that developed them. Publications groups from various ITSS computing services units, including the Computer Resource Center, Networking Systems, Communication Services, Distributed Computing, contribute to the site. The Leland Systems group does more than run campus email and Web pages. It supports academics in many ways, one of which is helping instructors get the software they need.
Software is one of the hidden complications that creeps up on TAs and faculty who teach courses.
If the software is popular enough, it can sometimes be made available for other systems on campus. The Software Licensing Office handles University-wide software licenses and volume discount agreements that make a variety of applications software available at significant discounts to members of the Stanford community. As you might imagine, the prices and terms vary greatly. This publication summarizes the upcoming changes and gives you sources for additional information. These changes are not included in this document.
