Photocopying & Printing/Downloading in the
Philson Library
Photocopying
Associate Members
Photocopiers work with your library ID card plus
User Name (NetID) and Password. Cost is 10c per page (A4).
Additional credit may be added to your library
card at the Information Commons Helpdesk (ground floor, directly beneath
the Philson Library). Payment is by Eftpos only.
If the photocopying is to be paid for by an ADHB
department, staff should keep receipts and seek reimbursement in the
usual way.
(Note: there is a system in
place to allow you to photocopy while you are waiting for your library
ID card to arrive).
Non– Associate Members
Photocopy cards may be
purchased at the Philson Library Lending Desk for $5-00. Cards are
loaded with $3 for copying (the card itself costs $2). Cost is 10c
per page (A4).
Additional credit may be
added at the Information Commons Helpdesk (ground floor, directly
beneath the Philson Library). Payment is by Eftpos only.
If the photocopying is to be
paid for by an ADHB department, staff should keep receiptsand seek reimbursement in the usual way.
Departmental Photocopy Cards
ADHBdepartments may purchase a photocopy card (as outlined above for
non-AssociateMembers) for use by
its staff in the Philson Library.
Someone in the department mustbe
responsible for managing the card - issuing it to departmental
staff, ensuring its return, and topping it up with additional credit
as needed.
It is
recommended that no more than $20 credit be added to the card at any
one time – if the card is lost or if the copying system changes in
the future, it will not be possible to reimburse any outstanding
amounts.
Philson Library cannot hold and manage the card on behalf of a
department
Printing/Downloading
Printing works with your library ID card, Username (NetID) and
password; cost is 10c per page.
You must have joined the library (see
Philson Library
Membership for details). An initial credit of
$10 has been added to your card for printing. Additional credit value
for printing can be added to your card at the Information Commons (IC)
Helpdesk located on the ground floor in the Information Commons. You
will need to pay by EFTPOS – the IC Helpdesk does not accept cash. Our
networked printing system allows you to print items such as articles
from e-journals, or the results of a database search, when you are in
the library.
In many cases, you can email articles to yourself and print them out
on your work computer, rather than paying to print in the library.
Finding material to print:
Log in to a library computer with your University of Auckland User
Name and Password. The login screen on the computer will ask you for:
-User Name (type in your User Name/NetID)
-Password (type in your password)
-Domain (must be EC; choose from the dropdown menu if necessary)
When you have found material to print, select print to send the
print job to the printing system - you can send multiple jobs.
When finished, log off the computer
Printing:
Library photocopiers are now used for printing, so go to one of the
copiers in Philson Library (or other University of Auckland library).
You must have funds on your library ID card (see above).
Log in with your User Name (NetID) and Password (use the “login”
button on the copier’s touch screen).
Press PRINT on the right-hand side of the touch screen (do NOT use
the Printer button on the left side of the console).
Select the job(s) to print.
Select “Print” from the menu.
Your printing should appear shortly. PDFs may take a while to print.
Any problems, ask desk staff for help.
Note: there is a system in place to allow you to print while you are
waiting for your library card etc to be posted to you.
NOTE: Many electronic (online) publications and documents are made
available as PDF files for printing or downloading to your computer. To
view and print PDF files you need the Adobe Acrobat
Reader. For information on installing or updating
