The department head should identify
a staff member as coordinator for this project.
Several Barnard departments are involved in an office move. Here's the
procedure:
- Users should back up all important
files now before the move begins. If
users need training about copying files to a CD or USB key, please
call the Help Desk. You do not need to back up files that are on
Athena.
- Each user should attach a label
(with last name) to the monitor, keyboard, mouse, CPU and surge
protector of his/her workstation. Also label all printers and
scanners.
- As soon as the project is
scheduled, call the Help Desk (x4-7172. or email help @ barnard.edu) to make an appointment for
Academic Technologies to assist you in disconnecting electrical power
and network cables. At the same time, set up a date with AT for
the hardware re-installation. The coordinator should give AT a
list of the staff members who will be moving to the new space.
- The Purchasing Department unlocks
the security cables attached to the computers. Call them (x4-5204) to
make an appointment to have this done. At the same time, schedule a
subsequent appointment to have your computer re-secured in its new
location. .
- The Facilities Project Manager
arranges for Facilities staff to move the hardware and cables on the
scheduled date. They will place the computers on each desk in the new
offices.
- Academic Technologies will then
re-attach network and power cables and test the computers. (If you did
not previously make an appointment with AT - see Step 2 above - call
as soon as you know when your computer will be in its new location.)
The users must be present for the testing.
- Purchasing relocks the security
cables. (See Step 3.)
