Zoom Rooms for Community Use

The Office of the Provost, in collaboration with the Office of Campus Planning, is piloting a new program of sharing meeting space across campus through May 2023. IS&T has partnered with Zoom's Professional Services Organization (PSO) to equip these spaces with Zoom Rooms solutions offering a consistent experience across diverse locations.

Use of these spaces is available to MIT faculty, students, and staff through reservations made via the Spaces feature within the MIT Atlas mobile application.

Self-Service Accessories

IS&T provides IT accessories for instructors to use in MIT classrooms, as well as ethernet cables for staff and students, through a set of self-service vending machines in several convenient locations on campus. These machines also provide KF94 face masks to any MIT community member who has an active MIT ID. 

These supplies are provided at no charge. Tap your digital MIT ID on your phone or your MIT ID card to the machine’s reader and select the item you need.
