FAQs
Does Media Services do large quantity print jobs?
Media Services does not provide regular/letter-sized (8.5x11 inches) black & white or color printing services. However, there several large-capacity printers on campus that can service your request for as little as .10 cents per copy. Contact the IT Helpdesk at 563-333-6368 for more information.
Can students check out equipment?
Only faculty/staff may check out Media Services equipment. However, there are some types of equipment available for student checkout at the circulation desk, and faculty/staff may choose to set aside Media Services equipment for use by students within the library, or may request to check out equipment on behalf of a student. Please note that not all such requests will be granted, and responsibility for the equipment will rest with the faculty/staff member.
I need to pay for a poster to be printed. Can I charge it to my print account?
Unfortunately, the poster printer is not connected to the print management system. Posters are payable by cash, check, or department transfer code.
I have a cassette or VHS tape I would like converted to digital or DVD. How do I do that?
Email the media services department with specifics on your request. Please note that we are not able to transfer or copy multimedia that is copyright-protected unless specific, written permission has been obtained from the copyright holder and/or the length of the clip request meets copyright compliance guidelines.
