Webdav Instructions

A shared directory space has been created for you to upload and download the transcription (*.trs) files. To access this space, you need to use your browsesr to open a password protected directory. Each of you has your own login and password to access this space.

The path to this directory is: https://www1.ccls.columbia.edu/dav/beck. Follow the instructions for your browser type below. Once you have the webdav folder open, you will see the firstpass and secondpass subfolders. Access them in the normal way, e.g., by drag and drop, folder copy commands, etc.

This is shared space, so be careful with file operations. DO NOT DELETE OR RENAME FILES.
