Photocopying and printing in the Library
Copying at the Library
You can use your Library card to copy. Add credit to your card at one of the machines in the reading rooms. If you don’t have a card, sign up online or when you visit us.
If you just want to copy, buy a Library copy card at one of the machines for $1.00, which gives you $1.00 credit.
You must observe the Commonwealth's Copyright Act 1968 when copying.
You can also order copies of Library material, such as articles and chapters from books. For more information or to place an order, go to our How to order copies page or ask at the Copying desk.
Printing at the Library
You can print from all of the Library's computers using your Library card or a Library copy card. You can also print from most of the microfilm/microfiche readers or save to your USB.
Printing is not available via the wireless (WiFi) network but you can print from your USB at the USB printing machine in the Verandah outside the State Reference Library Reading Room on Lower Ground 1.
