You will require your Swinburne ID card to use any of our printers or copiers. Instructions are placed beside them at each campus library. Fees and charges will apply. 

If you need help, please ask our friendly staff at any of the library and studentHQ counters or our Rovers located on level 1 of the Hawthorn Library.
