The LCLS provides a number of tools that allow users and staff to participate remotely in experiments while access to the site is restricted due to COVID-19 safety protocols.  These were demonstrated in the LCLS User Town Hall held on July 23, 2020, and available HERE.  This page will provide an overview of tools for external (incl. users) and internal (staff only) use, and provides links to pages with additional details such as installation and usage guides, as well as minimum system requirements.
