As part of the Collaborative Tools for Academics project, we have been looking at ways of enhancing the support available to academics to share information both internally and externally. Feedback from colleagues indicated that the University’s file transfer service was not adequate and required improvement. I am delighted today to launch the new file transfer service – BU Transfer.
BU Transfer will enable you to quickly and easily share large files with colleagues internally and externally via a web browser.
You can access BU Transfer from the Staff Portal, the Research Blog and MyBU via this icon.
We are very interested in your feedback regarding the service. Please could you forward all comments to Amina Uddin.
Best wishes
Matthew
