Printing, photocopying and scanning

At the beginning of your course, and annually thereafter, most students are given a printing and photocopying allowance (normally £20.00). You'll probably use this up during the year but if not, please note that any unused NTU allowance will not be carried over into the following year.

You can add money to your account using your Smartcard and the credit kiosks located in the libraries and IT resource rooms. Money that you put onto your account yourself will be carried over into the following year.

Printers in the libraries and IT resource rooms allow you to print in black and white and colour, on A4 and A3.

Photocopiers in the libraries are multi-functional so you can photocopy, print or scan documents. Once you have scanned a document it can then be sent via email. You will need your Smartcard to use the photocopiers.

Visitors
Visitors to LLR who wish to photocopy can obtain a Library Visitor Copy Card from the Information Desk in the library. You will need to return the card at the end of the day and you will be asked for a £2.50 deposit to recover the cost of the card if it is lost or damaged.

Once you have a Library Visitor Copy Card you will be able to add money to it using the credit kiosks located in the libraries. Any unused credit will be refunded to you when you return the card.
