At IU, how can I get university-distributed software?

At Indiana University, if you are a current student, faculty member, or staff member who uses a computer at work, or an emeritus faculty member, you can obtain university-distributed software as follows:

• Download it through IUware Online for free. You'll need a valid IU Network ID to use this service. Visit IUware Online at: http://iuware.iu.edu/
• Purchase the software on CD at your campus bookstore; for locations, see At IU, where can I get the IUware CD? The IUware CD, which contains many essential software applications, is available for $5 plus tax. Also available are various Microsoft products under the conditions of the IU/Microsoft Campus Agreement, as well as Corel WordPerfect for Windows. You will be required to show a valid university ID to purchase this software.

  Note: Adobe software will be available for purchase on physical media at discounted prices in early spring semester 2009.

• Some software is available at the walk-in Support Center in Bloomington; see At the Support Center walk-in location in Bloomington, what products and services are available for purchase?

Note: Staff members who do not have access to a computer at work may not download or buy software distributed under the Campus Agreement. In addition, retired staff and retired faculty who do not have emeritus status are not eligible for software under this agreement.

A student shall be defined as one who is enrolled in one or more for-credit classes, or is carrying credit-bearing hours. This may be established in one of three ways: 1) by identifying the student via a valid student identification card; 2) by verifying that the student is enrolled in one or more credit-bearing classes through review of the Registrar public access screens in the Registrar IUIS system; or 3) by validating student status through Continuing Studies as being enrolled in one or more for-credit courses.

For more, see the License Agreements page.
