Photocopiers
Public photocopiers are located in all Haverford libraries. Visitors may use coins, dollar bills or a pre-paid copy card to purchase copies for 15 cents each. Copy cards may be purchased at the Cash Value Center located in the Magill Library Information Hub (see right).
Bryn Mawr and Haverford students and employees may purchase copies at a discounted rate of 8 cents per copy by using a Haverford/Bryn Mawr OneCard. Swarthmore ID holders may do the same by asking for the Swarthmore photocopy card at the Magill Circulation Desk. Cash Value Centers that can add value to cards are located in the Magill Library Information Hub and in the Whitehead Campus Center.
Printers
Networked black-and-white printers are available in all Haverford libraries. The Library pays for the printing needs of Tri-College students, faculty, and staff; visitors to the campus who print are requested to reimburse the Library at a cost of 10 cents per page. Each circulation desk accepts reimbursements for printing.
Scanners
One publicly available flat-bed scanner is located in the Science Library. Faculty and students working for faculty may also use the slide, film, and flat-bed scanning equipment located in the Faculty Resource Room in the Academic Computing Center, Stokes Hall. Faculty engaged in course-related projects involving significant numbers of digital images may wish to contact Art and Photography Librarian James Gulick (jgulick, x1170) to learn about shared image collections in the ArtSTOR digital library.
Audio Digitization
The Libraries have equipment and software for creating and editing audio files. Faculty and teacher's assistants who need to use digital audio in Haverford courses should contact Music Librarian Michelle Oswell (moswell, x1169).
Special Collections Facilities
Due to the nature and condition of many of its materials, items in Special Collections may be copied, scanned or photographed by permission only. Many items may only be copied by staff. Scanning and photocopy charges are based on the nature and amount of material requested. (more information)
Copyright Compliance
Representatives of the Libraries and the Academic Computing Center, in consultation with Haverford faculty, are in the process of drafting copyright guidelines for the Haverford community. Although Library staff can give no legal advice, they can suggest helpful sources pertaining to fair use and United States copyright law. Anyone with questions about the Libraries' licensing agreements or who wishes to seek permissions from the copyright holders of Library materials may consult Associate Librarian Norm Medeiros (nmedeiro, 610-896-1173).
