  CSAC Provides Lab Staff with Direct Link on Computing, Communications Services

Have questions or concerns about such services as central email, desktop computer support, telephones, networking, central business applications, TEID and computer security? If so, Lab staff members can contact their division representative on the Computing and Communications Services Advisory Committee, or CSAC. CSAC works directly with managers and staff in the Information Technologies and Services Division to review and improve existing services or develop new ones.

Recent areas of discussion include spam blocking, TEID publishing costs, evaluation of Internet browser and email clients, wireless networking and the future of the Lab library (see related article in this issue). CSAC has formed topical working groups to work closely with the departments within TEID and provide direct input, as well as help bring larger issues to the table for informed discussion. The CSAC Website includes links to many of the committee’s reports and presentations.
