Returns of materials may be made at any branch or extension. Back to top Copying At each of our sites, Mercy College Libraries provide self-service copying equipment for print, microfilm and microfiche format originals. Copies are 10 cents per page if using change. For photocopiers, patrons may purchase plastic copy cards that provide the convenience of copying without the use of change, and the opportunity to receive a discount on the price of a copy. Library staff and student workers are always available to instruct and assist with the use of copying equipment, but users do their own copying.
Most campuses provide for faculty to charge course-related copying back to their division accounts.
Back to top Course Reserves Faculty may place print and non-print materials, including books, copies of articles, and videotapes, on reserve for student use during the semester. We ask that faculty allow 48 hours for processing time before the material becomes available for student use. Course reserves are shelved at the Circulation Desks of the Libraries' various sites. Space constraints occasionally limit the number of items to be reserved over the course of a semester, but this varies according to the demand. Most reserve titles are checked out and used in the Library for 4-hour periods, but course instructors may request a brief borrowing period for materials to be taken out of the library, depending upon course and student needs.
