Printers, using the student print quota, are available in most areas.

Desktop applications

All student computers have these common applications loaded. Student computers in the Library also have these additional applications.

Public access computers

Public access computers which do not require a login or password are available in all libraries.
They provide access to most of the Library's licensed resources but not to ISP email nor to all Internet sites.
Viewers for MS Office are available, although full Office such as Word, Excel or Powerpoint is not.

Printing from public access PCs is only available using the Copycard printer on level 3 north.

Scanning material

Scanning to USB is available at no charge on all Ricoh photocopiers. Instructions for scanning are posted near each machine.
Your USB needs to be in FAT format. Note that some USB brands - particularly novelty USBs - may not be useable with the Ricoh machines.

Ricoh copiers are located in the Barr Smith Library on levels 1 and 2 near the main stairs; also on levels 1 and 2 north near the computer suites.
In addition, a Ricoh copier is available in the Law Library.
