I'm in the library but I can’t print from my laptop or mobile device. What do I do? The library does not support printing from your personal laptop or mobile device. We suggest emailing yourself a copy of the document you would like to print or copying the document to a USB drive. If you need to borrow a USB drive temporarily, there are loaner USB drives available at the library reference desk on the 2nd floor of the library. Once you have emailed yourself the document or have copied it to a USB drive, please visit the Express Print Station at the 2nd floor reference desk. Printing is $.10 per page for black and white printing and $.30 per page for color printing. You can pay for your print jobs with cash or use your campus GoPrint account. There is always a friendly library staff member available to help you with printing at the library reference desk on the 2nd floor of the library.
