The Copier can reduce and enlarge control darkness/lightness and offer a choice of several paper sizes.  Campus departments can charge copying to their department with ease and there is always some on hand to help.

Interlibrary Loan
Students, faculty and staff may request that the library borrow materials for them from other libraries. This service is offered without charge though there may be a cost to the user if the lending library charges a fee.  Books, Articles, and other materials are available through these means. Availability is determined by the lending library, rare items and fragile items are seldom available.

Laminating

Laminating service is available for $.50  per running foot.  The maximum width of items cannot exceed 24 inches on its smallest side.  For best results minimize the use of exposed tape and glue on the item and make sure the item is not folded. The Library staff are not experts at the laminating process and errors occasionally occur in the laminating process.

Transparencies for use in the library copiers are available for sale at the circulation desk for $.50 per transparency.  Do not use transparencies other than those provided in the copy machine nor use our transparencies in other machines, miss use of transparencies can result in damage to the copy machine.
