New Copier

Unfortunately the days of free copies have to come an end. We finally have the coin-op copier set up for you to use and is fully operational (like the second Death Star in Jedi). Copies are 10 cents per page. The coin-op takes $1's and $5's and also gives change, please do not ask the library for change because we CANNOT give out change for the copier. The new copier is located in the Copy Room directly across from the periodical section, first door on the left!
