This guide explains what offerings are in the Knowledge Commons and how to utilize them.

UIT

Phone: 1.701.777.2222   
Email: UIT.techsupport@UND.edu   
Chat: http://UND.edu/UIT  

They will allow students to get help starting at 7 am. Patrons should use the south UIT door (just west of the main entrance), and use the doorbell.

UIT hours can be found at: 

  • Toner 

  • One black toner for the multifunction Uprinter located in room 243 in the ILL area’s cabinets. This should be used as a backup toner when the machine is empty and UIT is not available.  

  • If you need to use it, follow the instructions on the printer screen to replace the toner. Do NOT skip the part about the waste toner.  

  • Inform Chris that you used the toner so a new one can be ordered. 

  • Laptops 

  • They check out laptops and other tech to UND students and employees and set their own due dates. If patrons have questions regarding the due date or similar circulation issues, they should be directed to UIT to resolve it. If it is after hours or the question comes via email or chat, und.uitcheckouts@und.edu is the email to send messages to. Phone calls can be transferred to 7-2222. -KC 8/19/22 

  • UIT Phone Line 

  • The 7-2222 phone line is now exclusively automated rather than personally staffed during day hours. Thus, transferring should only be done for quick tech fixes (account logins, Wi-Fi, email, OneDrive, etc.). Should a patron need other UIT services (laptop loans, hardware repair, software installations, security, etc.), it is recommended they come to the UIT desk in-person. If the patron asks a UIT related question (that does not fit into the aforementioned categories) look online first, speak with a supervisor second, and either send someone or go downstairs to UIT to get an answer last. This may be subject to change as we become more familiar with these situations. JR 4/17/23
