Accessing Your Stored Files in OneDrive, ShareIn/ShareOut and BCIT Network Drives

You can access your personal files from a BCIT computer lab, or on your own internet-connected device. You’ll need your usual BCIT credentials.

To ensure that your files remains secure:

Make sure you log off lab computers when you’re done using them.
Never share your login (and consider using a secure password manager to manage it).

Accessing your files in BCIT computer labs

When you log on to BCIT lab computers, several drives are “mapped” to you, based on your BCIT account.
Your mapped drives include ShareIn (drive I) and ShareOut (drive J), your OneDrive (OneDrive – BCIT), and the DEV drive (drive Z).

You can locate all your mapped drives by opening My Computer, or from the Save As and File > Open windows in any software application.

Use OneDrive the same way you would use any other drive:

Drag and drop files to and from it.
Create folders and sub-folders to organize your files.
Save directly from the Save As window in any program.

You can also share a file or folder with someone to collaborate with them.

When someone else logs on to the computer, their own OneDrive and home drives will be mapped.

Accessing your files on your internet-connected personal device

To access your files from any computer other than a BCIT lab computer, use OneDrive by visiting onedrive.bcit.ca and ShareIn/Out using the instructions found here.

Any up-to-date web browser, on any operating system (Windows, Macintosh, Linux), will give you the full functionality of the website.
