RooTools 2007 is a collection of software and instruction sets designed to assist UMKC students, faculty and staff in connecting to UMKC resources, communicating with each other and protecting their personal computers. The software requires Windows XP or Windows Vista.

	RooTools Overview

The RooTools 2007 CD includes the following items:

• Acrobat Reader 8 - view PDF documents
