Copying service
Members and subscribers can order photocopies or printouts
from library stock and other material. Visitors to the library can
use a self-service photocopier (this accepts most coins and also
cards which can be bought at the counter) and print from CD-ROMs
and other electronic resources.
For legal reasons how you can place
an order, what may be copied and the charges payable all depend
on why you want the copies:
- commercial purposes –
for example, you require the copies in connection with your job
and you work for a commercial company;
- private study and research for
a non-commercial purpose –
for example, you require the copies for examination study or continuous
professional development.
