The Copy Center, located in Room B20 on the lower level of the College of Pharmacy building, provides copying services to faculty, staff, and students.  The Copy Center is open from 8:30 am to 5:00 pm Monday through Friday.  Copy requests should be placed at least 24 hours in advance of when they are needed.

To make a copy request:

  • Download & complete the copy request form (if the request form is not able to be completed in your browser, please download the file to your computer and open it with Adobe Reader)
  • Submit the form and document(s) to be copied to the Office of Student Affairs, Room 154
  •  Enter your request in the log book and place the request (other than quizzes and exams, which should be given directly to a staff member to ensure security) in the Copy Center mailbox

Completed copy jobs will be available for pick up in the OSA.  When a copy job is picked up, an entry should be made in the log book.

TAs will receive instructions on when to pick up Scantron forms from their respective course coordinators.
