Collaborate, manage and share documents from anywhere on any device with OneDrive

Most staff and faculty in the university are now licensed to use Microsoft 365, which includes the core Office suite (Word, PowerPoint, Excel, Outlook) and many new tools and services. One of the new tools available to staff is Microsoft OneDrive.  

OneDrive makes it easy to collaborate, manage, and share your documents from anywhere and any device. You can use OneDrive as your primary place for secure file storage, syncing, and sharing.* It’s easy to use and flexible enough so you can organize OneDrive to suit your needs.
