A public photocopier is located in the front area of the Library near the Answer Desk.

Scanning

We offer two options for scanning:

• Public Photocopier

Easily scan a document directly to your email account using our public photocopier. It's simple and fast. Instructions are posted by the copier. You'll receive an email, generally within a minute, with the document attached as a pdf.  This is best for multi-page, double-sided or documents that do not require any editing.

Scanning is free of charge, however the copier requires a copy card to start the process. Ask at the Answer Desk for a card you can use if you don't have one.

• Flatbed Scanner located in the Computing Center

This is a good option for low volume scanning that you want to edit. There is also a multimedia workstation setup with the following software:

• Adobe Acrobat Professional (for creating/editing PDF files)
• Adobe Photoshop (for editing photos and pictures)
• Adobe InDesign (desktop publishing)
