The Library Information Commons computers are set to shut down automatically at 11pm, beginning mid-April. There will be on-screen warnings 5 and 15 minutes before the shutdown.

Please save your work and logoff before 11 pm.

We now have help sheets for Microsoft Office 2010, including Word, Excel and PowerPoint, joining the ones already available for Office 2003 and 2007.

These help sheets step you through common computer-related tasks, particularly those needed for producing a well-presented assignment. They are available in the Library in print, or online.

The online sheets are a collaboration between the Library's IT Assistants, and the Centre for Teaching and Learning's OWLL website:

Turitea Printery has set up a new service for students to print their study materials from Stream, particularly larger jobs that the Library is having trouble coping with.

WHEN?
8.30am – 4.30pm, Monday – Friday

HOW MUCH?
Cost 4c (inc GST) per side, A4 black & white
Double-sided option is available

WHERE?
Student Notes Distribution Centre at the Printery, on the corner of University Ave and Albany Drive, towards the back of the campus.

If you're logging in to the Library Information Commons computers, here are a couple of tips...

• Use your ID number as user name and Massey PIN as password.
• If you 'wake up' the computer by hitting the space bar, you need to get rid of the space before typing in your ID number. This one's tripping quite a few people up - you'll get an 'incorrect login' message.
• You'll probably need to login twice at the moment. The Information Commons computers have a two step login. We're working on fixing this, but in the meantime just repeating your login will get you in.

Still can't login? Please ask us for help.

Students at Turitea - do you need some help using a computer? Friendly IT Staff can help you learn how to use Microsoft Office 2010 for your study. The sessions cover Word, Excel and PowerPoint and are FREE for all Massey students!
