Did You Know? You Can Scan for Free in the Library.

If a teacher has provided a class textbook to the library for their students to use, we have it on reserve.  You can use the KIC scanner to scan chapters of a reserve textbook (no more than two per week because of copyright laws), or other documents you need scanned.  Then email them to yourself and use the computer lab to read, print or forward them. The library has what you need to succeed!  Check out the Library of Things to see what else the library makes available to students to help with your studies.  Items can be checked out at the library circulation desk using your COM ID. http://dlvr.it/TV4rwp
