Ways to Access iSchool Documents

The iSchool Documents Content Library is intended for content that needs to be widely and routinely distributed or accessed by the entire iSchool or a group of individuals that routinely work together. This is a great option for committees, programs, and departments to create a shared folder for file sharing from a central location that is routinely accessed by other faculty and staff. iSchool Documents will slowly become the replacement for the G: drive.

iSchool Documents shared folders have to be initially created by the iSchool Technology Services team. Please submit a ticket to request a shared folder by emailing ischoolit@ot.syr.edu and include the individuals who would need access, (either 'read only' or read/write), to this space within the email.
