Wired and Wireless Access
Both wired and wireless network access is currently available in
the Mathematics Library Reading Room. Please ask at the circulation desk if you have any questions.
Public Access Computers
The Mathematics Library has 9 public-access PCs connected to the
campus network. Use of these computers for library research takes precedent. Email is allowed only
from the 5 terminals in the reading room (
Map B-9). These computers should not be used for generic Web
browsing or personal entertainment.
Printing
The Mathematics Library has a black and white printer for your convenience and the
cost is 10 cents per sheet. (Color printing is available at the Undergraduate Library and Grainger
Engineering Library.) All public access computers have the ability to print. To print a document,
choose File > Print, or if you are still on the desktop (not yet in the document), click on the
LibPrint Login icon (located in upper right of desktop). A new window will pop up and you can
choose to login with your NetID and password to have the charges billed to your University account.
Alternatively, you may send the print job to the
Undergraduate
Library to pay in cash or print in color
, or you may
sign up for a prepaid account.
You can even
connect wirelessly
to the printers. If you have more questions about printing please visit the
Library
Printing FAQ.
Photocopying
Two public coin/card-operated photocopiers are available for patron use in the
circulation area (
Map A-12). Photocopies are 15 cents per page if you pay in cash
and 12 cents per page if you use an I-Card or photocopy card. For information on how to use your
I-Card to make photocopies or add value to your copy card, please visit the
Library FAQ on the Main
Library's Web site.
Scanning
A scanner is available in the reading room (
Map B-10). It is primarily for the use of those with disabilities.
Others may use it when it is not needed by a student or other library user with a disability. To
use the scanner:
- Place the document you wish to scan in the scanner.
- On the desktop of the computer next to the scanner, open the applications folder (it may
already be open).
- Open the "Scan & Edit Images" icon at the bottom of the screen.
- Open Adobe Acrobat X
- Click on "Create" in the upper left hand corner, and select "PDF from Scanner," then choose the
color of the document
- When the page is finished scanning you will have to choose whether the scan is complete or
whether you want to scan more pages (you will not see any of the scanned images until you indicate
that the scan is complete). If you choose to scan more pages, have a new page in the scanner before
hitting "OK," as the machine will begin scanning immediately.
To troubleshoot problems with the scanner, please consult the help contact information affixed
to the scanner.
