Axe Library Wireless Policy

Pittsburg State University Library Services uses WiFi standards IEEE 802.11b and 802.11g. These standards provide up to 54 megabits/second connection speed. Library Services does not provide wireless equipment for checkout, so you will need to use your own laptop, tablet or smart phone with built-in WiFi.

Printers are NOT available to wireless users in Library Services. You may download documents to a USB drive and print them at the Library print stations located in the Axe/KTC Computer Labs, or other campus labs.

No special passwords are need at this time to access the public wireless network. Your PSU login and GUS pin are required for access to Library Services databases and other patron resources.

Library Services is not responsible for any changes you make to your computer's settings. For additional help, contact the Gorilla Geeks .

WiFi users assume all risks and responsibilities to provide anti-virus protection and appropriate security settings on their wireless device.

WiFi users should be certain that their wireless devices are secure at all times. Wireless devices are your personal electronic fingerprint, and should never be left unattended in the Library, even for brief periods of time. Theft of such devices should be reported to Campus Police immediately (245-4624).

Misuse of Internet access will result in loss of library access and privileges. It is not acceptable to use library Internet services to:

degrade or disrupt equipment or system performance
vandalize the data of any other user
gain unauthorized access to resources or entities
invade the privacy of individuals
violate federal, state or local laws or regulations, including those regarding accessing, viewing, printing, and distributing obscenity, child pornography, and materials harmful to minors
engage in any activity that is deliberately offensive or creates an intimidating or hostile environment
