Some Printing Guidelines for the Libraries

University Libraries Administration wanted to send out some quick reminders about using Digiprint/Printing Services.

  • If you need to print promotional materials for the Libraries, please check with Shannon to make sure these items meet Libraries and MU standards. Shannon can also help you with logistics of getting items printed.
  • If you want to send items to Digiprint directly, please check with Jacqueline or Kathy to make sure you are using the correct MOCode.
  • All printing receipts must be given to Jacqueline, so she can reconcile billing from Digiprint/Printing Services.

If you have any questions at all about printing items for the Libraries, feel free to contact Shannon.

Thanks,

Shannon Cary
