eCopy
There are copiers for scanning to email (called eCopy), currently located in the Copy Center. They allow you to scan documents in JPG (single page only), PDF, TIFF (Group 4 2D) or TIFF Class F (Group 3 1D) formats and send them to your email address. Your mailbox will need to have sufficient storage space for your documents; otherwise the documents will be lost when sent. You will need to activate the system using a copy card (OSU ID or convenience card with copy cash value on it), but there is no charge for the service at this time.
Drop Off Service
Drop off service is provided at Circulation for next day copies. Students and faculty may charge to their personal or department accounts. If you wish to pay with cash, please bring exact change, as we do not have change in the library.

Forms are available as a PDF file, at the Circulation desk and in the Copy Center. Copy staff will make copies for those needing assistance with the equipment for $0.07 per page.
Copying with ID Cards or Convenience Cards
Students, faculty and staff may establish an account on their ID card by adding value to their card through the OSU Card Cash/Add Value terminal located in the Copy Center. Your card may then be used for library copying and printing, and for food items at Java 2 and the campus food courts. The copy value on your OSU ID is separate from your food account.
Departmental cards (for copies only) may be obtained at the OSU ID center, Kerr Administration Bldg., Room B094 (in the basement), during regular business hours, Monday through Friday, 8am - 5pm.
Patrons without an OSU ID card may purchase a convenience card for $1.00, and then add value to the card at the OSU Card Cash/Add Value terminal. Convenience cards may also be purchased at the OSU ID center and at Circulation.
A patron who loses money in the OSU Card Cash/Add Value terminal may call the OSU ID Center at 737-2493. They can often adjust the card online. For a problem with the SU Card Cash/Add Value terminal, please contact the OSU ID Center.
Two cash copiers are located in the Copy Center (2nd floor) and the 1st floor. Coins and $1.00 bills are accepted. Copies are 10 cents each.
Transparencies
There is a self-service black & white transparency copier in the Copy Center. Color transparencies can be requested at Circulation. Outside transparency film may not be used, as they jam in the copiers and melt, causing extensive damage.
Color Copies
A high quality color copier is located in the Copy Center. It produces excellent copies from photos or text. You may make letter size copies yourself, or have library staff make them for an additional fee. Oversize copies and transparencies require staff assistance and can be requested at Circulation to be available the next day.
Map Copies
Library staff can make black & white copies of maps. University Archives and Maps (3rd floor) has a large selection of maps for patron use. To place an order, bring the map(s) to Circulation. Copies can be picked up at Circulation the following day. Maps may also be checked out at Circulation.
