Coming Soon: Group Workspace
Group Workspaces are for groups of staff or groups of staff and students, and allow access and sharing of files by people with a shared interest. For each Workspace there is a list of users who can read and another list of users who can both read and write files and folders. There is also a third list of "managers" who can maintain the lists of users, and who are expected to manage the area.
For example, in IT Services this could translate to our teams, while Facilities Management may have a "Building Plans" workspace, writeable by a few people and readable by more. Research Groups could have their own workspaces. Groups of students working on a project may, with the agreement of their academic department, be given a group workspace.

Group File Store
This is an area of disk space that can be set up for groups of students, or staff and students, to use for sharing files and resources for work related purposes. For example, this could be used for students working on the same undergraduate project to share data and documents.
The file space can be accessed from computer labs, hall, and staff offices using the Staff Desktop or Windows 7 Service. Access to the file space is controlled so that it is restricted to a nominated list of people. This list can either be managed by IT Services or at the request of a department by a member of staff in a department, normally a member of IT staff.
