iLab Solutions
iLab is a web-based, financially integrated interface used by all CORE Facilities to efficiently manage CORE resources. Clients can request equipment training, a quote or project consultation, sample processing, schedule equipment usage, review past use, view invoices, and track project communications through their iLab portal.
Hands-on training for groups or individuals can be requested by emailing um.core@maine.edu.
Log in buttons for iLab can be found to the right as at the top-left corner of every CORE facility webpage.
Registering for an iLab Account
All users of CORE facilities and resources must register for an iLab account. Principal Investigators, Researchers, Graduate Students, Undergraduate Students, Faculty, Staff, and External Clients must all register for an iLab account prior to scheduling resources in a CORE facility.
Members of the University of Maine system will use their maine.edu login credentials when registering. The iLab guide for internal users can be found here.
The registration process is slightly different for community members from outside of the University of Maine system. The iLab guide for external users can be found here.
If you need additional assistance in getting registered, don’t hesitate to reach out to us at um.core@maine.edu.
