There are two ways to print:

After either saving your document to a USB drive or emailing it to yourself, head to any print station and:

• Either insert the USB drive into the print station or open an internet browser to access your email. The printer stations are internet capable.
• Open your document via the USB drive or your email.

The Copy Room, located next to the Information Desk, is currently closed. Copying services are not 

available at this time. Please use our scanning service instead. (See below)

Scanners can be used to email scanned copies of documents or library materials to yourself.

To use the scanner:

• Push the "scan" button on the base of the scanner to scan the first page.
• If you wish to continue scanning more pages, adjust the material you are scanning to display the next page and click "continue scanning." Repeat until all pages are scanned.  If you are finished, click "finish scanning."
• Edit the scanned images as needed. 
• Save the scanned document to a flash drive or save and then email to yourself.

If you need assistance with the scanner please let the scanning attendant know.
