The Vise Library provides computers primarily to facilitate access to locally and remotely held information resources. First prioity of use will be given to students, faculty and staff of Cumberland University. Patrons are expected to abide by all university computing policies posted at the library's computer workstations. Failure to do so can result in suspension of computer privileges. Patrons doing research take precedence over students using the Internet for entertainment.

Connecting to Campus Network Services

Cumberland University uses the same format for all student usernames and passwords:

First Initial, Middle Initial, Last Name and the last two digits of the SSN.
Example: Samuel D. Jones, 123-45-6789  = sdjones89

Blackboard, ePortal, and Student Email all use the format specified above.


Campus computer login: Login as specified above, and in the domain field, be sure "STUDENTS" is selected.

Don’t save documents to library or other campus computers! Save them to a disk or a flash drive. All Dell computers in the library have a USB port on the back.

As always, please check with a librarian if you have questions.
