Computing & Technology: Computer Support
The Law Library's Electronic Services department offers College of Law students a wide variety of resources and services. However, for issues with UA Law Forums, Examsoft, or student group email distribution lists, please contact itsupport@law.arizona.edu.
OSCR & UITS
For services that the College of Law Electronic Services department cannot provide, students are encouraged to use the Office of Student Computing Resources (OSCR). OSCR is a campus organization dedicated to making technology accessible to UA students. OSCR oversees three open-access Helpdesk labs around campus, as well as the Multimedia Learning Lab, the Multimedia Classroom in AME, the Multimedia Zone in the Information Commons of the U of A Library, and OSCR Underground located in room 136 of the ILC. You can also reach an OSCR consultant by calling 520.626.TECH (8324).
More complicated computer issues are handled by the 24/7 IT Support Center through University Information Technology Services (UITS). The 24/7 IT Support Center is located in the Martin Luther King, Jr. Building, Room 207, 1322 East 1st Street (Mountain Avenue between 1st and 2nd Streets--on east side of Mountain Avenue). Use your CatCard for building admittance between 10 p.m. and 6 a.m. The 24/7 IT Support Center has a very knowledgeable staff and they are quite helpful. They also offer phone support, 520.626.TECH (8324), as well as chat/remote support.
