Virtual Software

AppsAnywhere is Tulane's software delivery and virtualization platform, giving students and faculty access to university-provided software on any device, from anywhere—on or off campus.

This one-stop web application provides convenient access to all software available to Tulane users, supporting academic work wherever it's needed.

Computers in the Library

The Learning Commons on the 1st floor, designed for individual and collaborative group work, is equipped with limited PCs . The computers are equipped with the following software:

Laptop Lending Program

In partnership with Newcomb-Tulane College and the Office of Retention & Student Success, TUL offers an additional 10 Dell laptops available for student use.

Tulane students may borrow a laptop for up to 7 days from the 1st floor Circulation Desk at Howard-Tilton Memorial Library during regular library hours. This initiative aims to support students’ academic success when their personal laptops are not available to them.

For more information about borrowing and availability, please visit the Circulation desk.

When logging in, users with an existing Adobe account will be prompted to choose between their “Personal” and “Work/School” accounts—similar to other services like email. To access Tulane’s licensed Adobe software, select “Work/School.”

Active Tulane affiliates—including currently enrolled students, faculty, and staff—can access library computers using their Tulane username and password. For details, please see our Computer Use Policy.
