Welcome to Marston Science Library and the Smathers Library Domain.
- You will use your Gatorlink account to logon to our Staff computers.
- If you use Aleph, the Staff side of our Library catalog:
- Create a different password for your Aleph logon. Never leave a password at the default.
Be security conscious!
- It is against University and Library computer security policies:
- To share passwords
- To log on for anyone else
- In other words - whoever is working at a computer must be the one who is logged on to it.
- To allow non-employees to use employee computers
- To download games, etc, from the Web
- Remember to log off:
- Before you leave for the day
- Or, if you must leave your computer unattended for a length of time
- While browsing the Web, avoid questionable sites, and be careful what you click.
- Likewise: delete weird email without opening it.
- Report – immediately – any evidence of virus or spy-ware on your computer!
Follow our routines for fixing Staff computer problems.
- The Systems Department takes care of equipment problems. All you need to do is:
- Report problems (computers, software, printers, network) to your supervisor or to a Systems staff member.
Follow our rules for Staff computer maintenance.
- Our computers remain ON - all the time. (Monitors should be turned off when not in use.)
- Reminder: Users must log off.
- Downloading your own software or stuff from the Web onto our computers is not allowed.
- We provide the software you need for your job.
- A Systems staff member will run new installs, updates and other configuration changes.
- Be careful not to delete Desktop and Start Menu shortcuts:
- We provide the shortcuts because we all need easy access to those commonly used programs.
- Clear your Browser cache – on a regular basis. We can show you how.
- If you make a mistake, don’t panic, we can fix it! But, please let us know.
Be courteous.
- Remember, computers are supplied to employees for doing work.
- Limit your personal use of your computer to a reasonable amount of time.
- Serve your clients first…Library patrons and other Library employees!
