Guest NetIDs and Wi-Fi Access
A Northwestern NetID is required to access secure University resources. Anyone with a Northwestern NetID should be using the "Northwestern" wireless network. One-day access to Library resources can be granted by visiting a Library service desk to get a temporary NetID.
Guest NetIDs work on all public computers except those in the John P. McGowan Information Commons. They are valid for 24 hours.
