Instructions mostly of value to Chemistry IT staff, including our particular conventions used.

How to sponsor a NetID, in Chemistry

Documentation on Chemistry IT's role, using CIT's tools, to help Chemistry faculty provision or renew Sponsored NetIDs.

• Chemistry IT's processes — Reminders to Chemistry IT staff on the processes related to Sponsored NetIDs
• Deprecated, Setting up or renewing a "sponsored" NetID — Keeping your NetID when you leave the University or reactivating an old NetID
  • Keeping your NetID when you leave the University or reactivating an old NetID — This page is useful if you need to keep your NetID when you leave the University to access University resources (email, VPN, cluster, file shares, library, etc.).
  • Text of NetID renewal email, from ChemIT
• Information CIT sends as part of the Sponsored NetID process — CIT sends communications to various folks as part of the Sponsored NetID process. Collected here are sample copies of some of those communications.

Services retained by having a sponsored NetID, and services you still lose

Unless other provisions are made, staff (including PostDocs, but not retirees) and non-graduating students lose access to many network-based services.This page explains the what, why, and how's.

• A sponsored NetID by itself does NOT provide Library access — In order to contain costs and comply with licensing agreements, the Library must promise that access to the content is tightly controlled, which usually means only to current Cornell students, faculty or staff members.

Sponsored NetIDs and GuestIDs

All Chemistry Department Sponsored NetIDs are processed by Chemistry IT, as of August 2016. We also provision GuestIDs.

• Sponsored NetID tips and process notes, mostly for IT staff — Includes stock language for common emails sent regarding Sponsored NetIDs.
