Do not count on retrieving files you save on a library computer. While the files will be available for immediate use, such as uploading to iCollege or attaching to email, they may not be available later. For privacy and safety concerns, it is typically best that you don’t save files to the desktop. If you need to do so temporarily, please delete the files before logging off.  

Using OneDrive 

You can use OneDrive to save files to the cloud and access them later on your own device or again on a library computer. 

To do this, please follow the detailed instructions the Technology Services Desk has provided. 

Using a Flash Drive 

You can also use a flash drive to save your work. The library service desks have flash drives available for use, so please ask if you need to borrow one. 

Attach to an Email 

You can also open your email and send yourself an email with the document attached.

For more help, ask a librarian.
