Library Spotlight: Protect Yourself- Save Frequently

Spotlight image of hard hat

 Protect Yourself-- Save Frequently! 

 Make sure to save your work frequently. We've seen students accidently lose entire
 research papers and presentations by forgetting to save their work properly.

 Hitting "save" is not enough...

  • Select "SAVE AS" to pick where you save your files. If you don't, anything saved to the "C drive" or temporary files will be lost when you log out.
     

  • Choose your "H drive"-- your student storage space, which looks like your log-in (e.g. Brown018). Your documents will be available from any campus computer, but not from home.

                                       OR
     

  • Choose your "flash drive" (USB or memory stick) to take your documents anywhere with you.


 Need help? Ask at the Student Technology Help Desk (Kellogg Library 2nd floor),
 email sth@csusm.edu, or call (760) 750-6505.
