Assistance with Photocopying

Assistance to use the self service copiers is available. You may request assistance during office hours from the Murdoch Print at the Murdoch Campus Library, North Wing Level 3 or after hours at the Enquiry Desk. At the other campus libraries, assistance is available from the Loans or Reference Desk at each library.

Advice and services for colour copying, binding and finishing are available from the Murdoch Print at the Murdoch Campus Library, North Wing Level 3. The Copy Centre is open Monday to Friday, 8.30am to 5.00pm.

Paying for Copying

The Library uses the Monitor Copy system for payment of all photocopying and printing charges. Payment is transacted using a plastic card with a magnetic strip on the reverse side.

Murdoch staff and students can use their University Card to pay for their photocopying. Other library users may use any card with a magnetic strip (eg. Medicare card).

Credit may be added to your photocopy account using an Autoloader. Autoloaders are located in the main library North Wing Level 3 and Link Level 2, Veterinary Studies Library, Rockingham Campus Library and Peel campus Library. Your card may be credited and re-credited as long as the card is in good condition. The Autoloader machines accept 10¢, 20¢, 50¢, $1, and $2 coins, and $5, $10, $20, $50, and $100 notes.

For information on how to use the Autoloader please refer to the instruction sheets next to each Autoloader.

Note - The Autoloaders DO NOT GIVE CHANGE and refunds are not available.

Change Machine

Change is available in the main library from the change machine located on North Wing Level 2 near the IT help desk. The machine accepts $5, $10, $20 and $50 notes and dispense $1 coins.

Using your University Card

Wand or swipe your card through the card reader beside the copier or printer. The first time you use your card for copying you will be asked for a PIN. Enter a four-digit number, press ENTER, re-enter the number and press ENTER again. Every time you use your card you will need to enter the PIN only once. If you forget your PIN number, contact the IT Service Desk Counter in the main library on North Wing Level 3 (near the main entrance).

The same card and process is used for purchasing copying and printing services from the Library Copy Centre.

When you have finished copying or transacting business, remember to press the FINISH button.

Care for your photocopy card as you would your bank credit card, by keeping it in a safe place and away from other magnetic cards.

Lost cards should be reported to the IT Service Desk Counter and (for Murdoch staff and students) to the Loans Desk on North Wing Level 3 of the Library.

The CopyPlus card system is also used at Edith Cowan and Notre Dame Universities. Your University Card can be used at either of these institutions using funds added at that institution.

Charging Photocopying to Accounts

Staff and postgraduate students may charge copying and printing costs to account codes, upon presentation of the appropriate request form (signed by their School or Divisional Executive Officer or Dean of the School) to staff at the IT Service Desk Counter in the Main Library.

Scanning, Laminating, Binding and Colour Copying

Scanning, laminating, binding and colour copying are available on request at the Murdoch Print in the Murdoch Campus Library on Link Level 3. Murdoch Print is open Monday to Friday, 8.30am to 5.00pm. Payment is made using your University Card (or other plastic card with a magnetic strip).

Binding services are also available for doctorate theses requiring hard cover binding. This service is provided from Collection Services in the Main Library (Annex Level 2). For more information see Thesis Binding Service.
