ITS continues to make progress with the release of a cloud storage solution to campus. OneDrive has been rolled out to several administrative units across campus, with more scheduled to be complete before winter break. As previously mentioned, a phased approach is being taken for the release of OneDrive to ensure adequate technical support is available to faculty and staff as they get familiar with this new platform for document storage. Implementation will continue through the end of the fiscal year. A full schedule for the OneDrive project is available on the ITS website.

In order to prepare for the launch of OneDrive, ITS staff pushed the OneDrive client to all Drake-owned Mac computers on Nov. 10. The client will be pushed to Drake-owned Windows computers soon. There is no need to do anything with the OneDrive software at this time. ITS staff will continue to work directly with departments across campus to provide additional instructions and training as the OneDrive roll out continues throughout the rest of this fiscal year.
