Overview

My Documents OneDrive for Business is the personal folder individual user's online storage space that each Faculty and Staff member has. Department SharePoint Document Libraries are a collection of intra- and inter-departmental shared folders of documents accessible on SPU's SharePoint. 

Features

Network file shares allow you to access files directly and work on them as if they were stored on your local computer. A user's Documents folder is generally used as a default storage location for an individual's files that don't need to be sharedand is recommended to be synced to OneDrive for Business. Files in a user's OneDrive can be shared to those within and external to the university. Department SharePoint Document Libraries are where files that need to be shared across multiple users can be stored. Similarly, documents can be stored as part of a Team in Microsoft Teams.

Certain file types are not allowed to be saved on SharePoint, Teams, or OneDrive. If you experience trouble saving a file due to these exceptions (for instance, executable files), please contact Help Desk who can work with you to find a suitable, regulated, secure storage platform.
