Due to updates CU Boulder's wireless infrastructure, eduroam services are unavailable in Norlin Library at this time. UCB Guest wireless is the recommended workaround for visitors to the university who need to use a wireless network in Norlin. Campus affiliates should use UCB Wireless.
The eduroam service is an international secure federated access service, allowing for members of participating institutions to access a secure wireless network when on the CU Boulder campus or one of the hundreds of other institutions in both the United States and world-wide.
