While ITS is happy to create file shares, we recommend considering using a Microsoft Team for quicker access, more storage,  and easier user management. Click here for more information on Microsoft Teams. If you need help deciding if a File Share or a Team is best for your needs, please contact our technology training specialist.

Academic and administrative departments can request file shares for groups of faculty, staff, or student workers to use. All users in the group must have a Clark Account and files in this storage space are shared among those approved by the owner. The access options are “Read-Only,” or “Full.” This access can be granted on a person-by-person basis, to groups, or to everyone; access on an individual file or directory basis is not available.

The default amount of space provided is 1 GB.
