How to reserve an EMu workstation
Overview
EMu runs optimally when the user's computer is connected to NYBG's network via Ethernet cable. While EMu can run using NYBG's WiFi when onsite, or using WiFi and VPN when offsite, its performance is significantly reduced.
To maximize efficiency and productivity when working offsite, we have assembled 4 shared desktop workstations to which Herbarium staff may log in remotely to use EMu.
Reserving a Workstation
Each workstation is numbered and must be reserved prior to use.
To make a reservation, you must have an NYBG email account and have been granted access to the "Herbarium Calendars." Contact Kim Watson if you need assistance.
Please be courteous to others when reserving a workstation:
- Do not sign up for a workstation and then not use it.
- If your remote working schedule changes, update or delete your reservation for the workstation.
- If you finish early, update your reservation so others know the workstation is available.
- Do not create an appointment "series" and reserve a workstation every day for weeks in advance. Make individual appointments and sign up a few days to a week in advance.
