Computer Lab Policy
Login is Required
Campus computing patrons must log into all machines in Geneseo's computer labs. Login will provide access to the computer and the printers in the labs. A valid login consists of your Geneseo email username and password.
Do not store files on lab computers.
Lab computers automatically delete profiles in order to conserve limited hard drive space and improve performance. It is highly recommended that lab patrons store their files on cloud storage such as Google Drive or Microsoft OneDrive both of which are accessible with your Geneseo account, or utilize alternatives such as Drop Box or iCloud Drive. Removable Media (Thumb Drives, External Hard Drives, SD Cards) can also be used on computers that have the appropriate connections.
Remember to Logout.
When you are finished using a computer in the lab, don't forget to logout. If you do not logout, the next person who uses that computer will have access to all of your personal files (including your email). The next user will also be able to use your print balance.
Windows 10: Click on the Windows Start Button (squares in the lower left); on the left side, click on the circle icon with a person and select "sign out" or use the "Log Off" icon located on the desktop.
macOS: Click on the Apple menu; select Log Out.
Printing
Most computer labs have a printer in the room or a PublicToshiba located nearby. See Cloud Printing at Geneseo for PublicToshiba locations.
