Photocopying

Photocopying and printing policy and procedures

The library provides three colour devices for photocopying and printing: Cedric in L1.03, Silas in L2.01 and Cyril in L2.03.

• All students are allocated photocopying access by the IT department for photocopying and printing.

• Library staff can provide individual instruction in the basic use of these devices.

• The IT Faculty can provide instruction for printing. The default setting is double-sided printouts in black and white. If you want a different format, you will need to change the settings. • No student [only library staff members] address error messages, remove jammed paper, change toner cartridges, load paper supplies, etc. However, it is vital that students alert library staff to red error lights and messages so they may be fixed in a timely manner.

• Library staff will facilitate copies on special paper for students.

• As printing queues can be long on mornings when assignments are due, it is advisable to print out at home or well before time – or use a device other than the one on level one.

• Users of these reproductive devices (as well as scanners and computers) must be aware of copyright requirements. The School has a strict policy of academic integrity and endorses the honest and ethical recognition of the ideas (the intellectual property) of other people. Below is an edited extract from the copyright notices posted in the library.

Copyright owners are entitled to take legal action against persons who infringe their copyright. A reproduction of material that is protected by copyright may be a copyright infringement. Certain dealings with copyright will not constitute an infringement, including: • a reproduction that is a fair dealing under the Copyright Act 1968 ( the Act ), including a fair dealing for the purposes of research or study; or • a reproduction that is authorised by the copyright owner. It is a fair dealing to make a reproduction, for the purposes of research or study, of one or more articles on the same subject in a periodical publication, or, in the case of any other work, of a reasonable portion of a work. In the case of a published work in hardcopy form, 10% of the number of pages, or one chapter, is considered a reasonable portion. In the case of a published work in electronic form only, a reasonable portion is not more than, in the aggregate, 10% of the number of words in the work.
