Please remember that talking, eating, and drinking are allowed in restricted areas only. There also are other places to study on campus such as special study areas in many of the dormitories. Copy machines are available in most campus libraries. A few machines accept coins but most require debitcards. Ask about debitcards at the library you are using.
Many libraries also have machines that make paper copies of microfilm and microfiche.
Debitcards also are needed in most libraries to print your search results at library workstations. While many of the computers in the library are intended to be used only by people doing research, computers for doing email and word processing are available in specially designated areas in a number of campus libraries, including College, Memorial, Middleton, Steenbock, and Wendt. ISeveral campus libraries enable you to connect your laptop to the Internet using wired and wireless technologies. Since the databases are paid for by the libraries, they are available only to UW-Madison students and staff which means that you need to connect to the campus network in order to use them. If you are in the residence halls, you are automatically connected to the campus network.
