Scanning

You can scan documents to a USB device or to your email address from our public multi-function printer. We encourage you to scan to your own email address—not another person’s—so that you have a copy of the scan, and you can forward it  to others if needed. Please ask staff if you need help.

Faxing

Ask at the front desk about fax service. Library staff can assist you with sending faxes.
