Dear Students, Faculty and Staff,

As we all prepare for the Fall 2023 semester, Facilities & Services (F&S) wants to share some helpful information about energy conservation and being aware of our carbon footprint, especially during these hot months.

With the start of the semester upon us, we wanted to remind you of the many tools and resources that are available to support you and your students.

Please contact us if you would like to talk more about any of these tools. You can also check out our UIS Knowledge Base for quick access to articles and support materials about services: https://go.uis.edu/UISKB. We look forward to hearing from you!

It is the start of another great fall semester.  Many new employees are working at the University and being given access to different Webtools.  We want to help make learning Webtools as easy as possible by providing links to our Training Videos.  The videos can also be found at the bottom of every Webtools screen via the Training Videos button.
