FAQ

The Question

Can I print at the library

Our Answer

Yes. 

Starting August 2025, printing and copy-making will once again cost users .10/page for black & white and .15/page for color copies. We use Go Print, a pay-to-print system used in educational and other settings. Users pay for printing by purchasing a Go Print card, which can be reloaded and used throughout the semester. How it works: 

  1. If you need a card, bring a $1.00 bill to purchase one. Please note: A $1.00 bill must be used (no quarters, no bigger bills for initial card purchase, no electronic payment at this time). The library does not make change; please go to Student Business Services to break large bills first. 
  2. Use one of the small Go-Print vending machines inside the library to make your initial purchase. For that $1.00, you are buying the physical card plus .50 worth of copies.
  3. Using one of the library computers, send your document to be printed. 
  4. Go to the Go-Print station (large touch-screen monitors near the printers), and look for the number of your computer to initiate the print job. Follow on-screen instructions to complete the process. Note: printing back-to-back is considered two pages. 
  5. Keep your Go Print card and load it up throughout the semester. Loading up an already-purchased card is easy--you can use larger bills for reloading the card with the understanding that the machines do NOT give change. 

You can always find a a staff member or a student ambassador to help you with all of this! 

(Note: Currently, you cannot connect your laptop to our printers. You will need to either transfer your document using a flash drive or open the document that you would like to print on one of our computers. Or you can email it to yourself using your laptop and log into your email on the library computer and retrieve the document that way. Again, we can help with all of this!)
