During the height of the Covid pandemic, the Library discontinued charging for printing and copying in an effort to help all students. Starting August 15, 2021, the Library must resume these charges. The costs were 10 cents for black & white print pages, and 35 cents for color print pages.
These charges are necessary to offset the cost of the equipment, supplies, and maintenance necessary for public-use machines. The Library does not make money on this service.
Scanners are available throughout the Library, and scanning remains free.
