Welcome to the Lifetime Library at UNC SILS!
Access for incoming SILS students, Fall 2011:
Fall 2011 marks the start of an ambitious project at SILS: To provide trusted storage and associated services for students and alumni for their entire lives. We are currently offering 250GB of space to our incoming students.
The School's assurance that such resources will persist will serve as a trusted covenant between the institution and its constituents. This service will not only help students lead successful digital lives beyond the University, but can also serve as a link to alumni who stay in touch and participate in campus activities.
About the Software
The Lifetime Library client is currently a Java Web Start Application that runs on Windows, Mac, and Linux. We are continually updating both the client software and working with the iRODS team to improve the server infrastructure.
