Printing and Scanning

Library computers are connected to a networked laser jet printer. Printing costs $0.10 per page. Students receive 25 free pages of printing per academic year. Students will need to have a valid OCOM Library account in order to print in the library.

Library users have access to a copy machine. Copies cost $0.10 per page. Students, staff, and faculty with a valid OCOM email address may use this machine as a scanner and send digital files to their OCOM email address for free.

Print charges are automatically added to student accounts at the time of printing. Alumni and members of the general public must pay at the time of printing at the circulation desk.

The Library will scan pages from physical items in our collection; students who request this service will receive a PDF of the scanned pages delivered to their OCOM email address. Students may request up to two chapters to be scanned per day.

The Digitization button only appears if you are signed in to your Primo account. After you are signed in, select Digitization and let us know what pages or parts you need digitized.

If you are seeking scans for required class readings, please ask your instructor to contact the library and request scanning services; the library is happy to create scans that can be posted in Populi.
