Located in TETC 113, Information Technology maintains an IT Help Desk dedicated to helping Faculty, Staff and Students with computer problems. The IT Help Desk is staffed with two full-time IT Help Desk Representatives, and also employs lab techs from the student body to assist users with their computing problems in the labs, and to provide information and quick tasking of problems.

The IT Help Desk is the central support location for all the TETC computer labs, is the central location for computer support of the Academic Computer Labs, and also houses Printing Services. Each of the auxiliary labs  also has a lab tech on duty who can help with computer problems as they arise. The IT Help Desk is open the same hours as the TETC labs, and can be reached at 7-5454.

We recently added a new e-Book printing station at the Help Desk. This station is configured specifically for downloading and printing electronic textbooks that professors are using for classes. This computer is equipped with all required software to print to TE 116A. Note that printing is not free; prints are deducted from your weekly balance. You must have prints left on your weekly balance in order to print.

The IT Help Desk also has reference material available for both take-home and in-house use. 

The IT Help Desk may be reached in person, via phone by calling 7-5454 (off-campus 410-677-5454) for phone technical support, or via e-mail at helpdesk@salisbury.edu, during normal hours.
