Computing, Printing & Scanning

We have four computer labs equipped with UNI login for community use:

• An open lab on the 2nd floor with five Macs and five PCs available
• The Library Instructional Classroom has PCs and is open to the community when not in use for a course
• The Empirical Reasoning Center (Milstein 102) has both PCSs and Macs, and is staffed to provide assistance with data-related projects and assignments
• The Media Center's Post-Production Lab (Milstein 105) offers Macs, which are prioritized for video and graphics uses. These computers are equipped with additional software, including DaVinci, Sketch, AutoCAD, and Rhino

All of the computers are equipped with Microsoft Office, Adobe Creative Suite, which includes Photoshop, and media, quantitative and mapping software.  For a complete list please visit the BCIT Student Computing Services page.

The second, third and fourth floors of the library have Lookup Stations, a single computer that does not require a UNI login. To connect to these computers, just click the "student" icon. They are available for short-term use, such as sending a print job, looking up a call number in CLIO, or reseting your UNI password

Printing is available through the Columbia networked printing system, PawPrint. There are PawPrint stations and printers on the floors 1, 2, 3, and 4.

• Barnard students are allotted 100 sheets per week. As you print, pages will be deducted automatically from your weekly quota; additional pages may be purchased for 10 cents per sheet. 
• The Library's printers are set to print on both sides. 
• To learn more about your print quota or to check your balance, go to the PawPrint guide. 

Scanners are available in the on the 2nd floor in the open computer lab, on the 3rd floor between the elevators and the collection, and on the 4th floor between the elevator and the collection. There is no charge for scanning. Brief directions are available at each scanning station.

If you need any help, please ask at the Circulation & Help Desk on the 2nd floor.
