OFFICERND For all room reservations and bookings, The Hub uses OfficeRnD to manage the physical space. All faculty, staff, and students using the space will be added to OfficeRnD at the beginning of each semester. While your classrooms will be reserved for you in partnership with UD's Registrar, you will be able to reserve additional meeting and conference rooms through OfficeRnD. Periodically, you will receive updates about events and programming happening at The Hub through the platform as well. To access your account, visit https://thehubdayton.officernd.com/login and login using your udayton email, and your OfficeRnD password. If you have not created a password, click "forgot password" to establish one.
SALTO The Hub uses the SALTO System as its access control platform for keyless entry. By downloading the "JustIn" mobile app on your cellular device, you will be able to access the building and the appropriate classrooms and meeting spaces. In order to acquire the virtual keys through the "JustIn Mobile" app, you must be sure your mobile number is included on your OfficeRnD profile and includes the country code (e.g. +19372104572). Once you have downloaded the app, and your phone number is correctly registered in OfficeRnD, a virtual key will appear. This key will get you access to the main entrance of The Hub (the access panel is located on the far right door next to the display case), the entrance to The Hub from Startup Grounds (the access panel is on the left wall next to the double doors), and the entrance to the basement from Startup Grounds (the access panel is on the right side of the door leading to the basement stairs). To use the app, click on the round green virtual key and hold your phone to the access panel. After a few seconds, the panel should turn green notifying you that your access has been granted and the door is now open.
