AppsAnywhere is Tulane's software delivery and virtualization solution designed for students and faculty, enabling Tulane to deliver any app to any device, on and off campus.
AppsAnywhere is a one-stop web application– accessible on any device, anywhere– that gives students access to all of Tulane's software available to them. Due to COVID-19, most of the campus computer labs are decommissioned or have limited capacity. This software solution will allow students to log in to one place to access the applications they need to contribute to their academic success.

When users login if they have an Adobe account already they are presented with the option to select either their “Personal” or “Work/School” account, much like what happens with e-mail and other services. They must choose “Work/School” in order to use the university license.
Active Tulane affiliates (i.e., currently enrolled or employed students, staff, and faculty) may access these computers with their Tulane username and password. For more information on using computers at the library, please review the Computer Use Policy.
Responsible Use
All individuals should use the library computers responsibly in pursuit of academic functions. In doing so, they must not infringe on the rights or privacy of others or the integrity of the computer system, and they must abide by Technology Services' university-wide policy on use of computers and networks. The following list characterizes some, but not all, unacceptable uses of computers in the Library:
-
Repeated use for non-academic or non-research purposes by non-Tulane affiliates.
-
Downloading or installing software to hard drives.
-
Deliberately altering any files or modifying the configuration of any Library workstation or peripheral.
-
Violations of the Library computer security or network integrity, including attempts to bypass network security, obtain passwords, share passwords with others, or the unauthorized use of passwords.
-
Destruction or damage of computer equipment, or the removal of any part of the Library computer workstations.
-
Use of two or more library computers simultaneously
-
Connecting personal computers, laptops, or other devices to the Library network.
-
Game playing, including interactive games
-
Copying any copyright-protected digital content
-
Any illegal activity
Any individual found to be using the computers to the distraction of another user or limiting access to the computer for the research purposes of another user, will be required to cease the activity, unless they can demonstrate that they are completing an academic assignment for a Tulane University class. Repeated violations by students, staff or faculty will be referred to the appropriate campus disciplinary body. Violations by non-affiliated users will be referred to the Department of Public Safety and violators may be removed from the campus.
Tulane University Libraries is proud to partner with Newcomb Tulane College to make a small fleet of Dell laptops available for short-term borrowing by actively enrolled Tulane students.
To borrow a laptop, students should bring their Splash Card to the 1st floor Check Out Desk in Howard-Tilton Memorial Library and simply ask for a laptop.
Laptops may be borrowed for 7 days at a time.
Help us ensure these laptops remain available to all Tulane students for as long as possible and protect your personal data privacy by:
- deleting your personal files before returning the laptop
- logging out of any personal accounts such as your email or Canvas
- return the laptop on time
- return the laptop in the same condition you received it in.
This is a small collection with high demand, so it is vitally important laptops are returned on or before their due date. Laptops not returned on time will be considered lost and a replacement fine for the full cost of the laptop ($1,175) will be charged to the student's Bursar account. Students may also be subject to having a freeze placed on their records, which means they will not be able to register for classes or receive an official copy of their transcript until the replacement fine is cleared.
We understand that events beyond our control may lead to a lost replacement fine. If you believe this is your situation, we encourage you to complete an appeals request.
