Wits enables free Wi-Fi at public libraries in Jozi
- Wits University
×ãÇò¾º²ÊappÅÅÃûs and staff from all South African public universities can now access free wi-fi at 36 libraries owned by the City of Johannesburg.
Wits University, in partnership with its technical partner TENET and the City of Johannesburg (CoJ), is proud to announce the rollout of eduroam in 36 public libraries across the city. This groundbreaking initiative grants students and staff from all South African public universities secure wi-fi access, supporting learning, teaching, and research beyond the traditional campus setting.
Eduroam provides a seamless, reliable platform for users to connect to the internet using their institutional credentials, enabling academic engagement wherever eduroam is available. This expansion builds on the success of our 2023 collaboration with Airports Company South Africa (ACSA), which introduced eduroam at major ACSA airports nationwide.
"By bringing eduroam to libraries, we are making a tangible difference in access to educational resources, especially for those without reliable internet at home. Wits ICT is committed to driving innovation that enhances higher education and supports the academic community," says Dr Stanley Mpofu, Wits' Chief Information Officer and Chair of Higher Education Information Technology South Africa (HEITSA) representing SA's 26 public universities, who was named SA's 2024 CIO of the Year.
