This doc shows what software is available to UW faculty, staff, and students on the campus software library.
Additional software may be available to staff who placed orders for departmental software through the Tech Store (that mostly refers to purchases of Microsoft Select licenses and some of the math and stats software). That software will be available to download after customer clicks the "Purchased Software" link that will appear for them on the CSL home page. If a customer contacts us because the person who purchased the software is not the same person who needs to download it, please email licensing at doit.wisc.edu.
