IRC News: Copy Machine

There is a new copy machine on the library second floor, it replaces the old venda-card compliant machine. Located directly outside the IRC, the copier is available to COE students during field experiences.

Instructors will notify students regarding number of copies available. Students are responsible for knowing their user name and ID number; number of copies assigned and remaining; and for logging out of the copy machine when finished.

Copier Access FAQs:

• Students will be notified by their course instructors regarding a start date for copy machine access.
• Username is your Ashland University email ID (without the @ashland.edu). 
• ID number / password is your seven digit Ashland University ID (do not use au- in front of the number). 
• Number of copies used and available will display on the bottom left corner of the main screen after each successful login (i.e. 52/200 means 52 of allotted 200 copies have been used). 
• Students are required to log out of the copier at the end of every session. 
• When quota is exhausted, students will not receive additional copies. 
• All user accounts will be disabled two weeks after the end of each semester.

Instructional posters are available with the copy machine providing quick tips for usage and usage FAQs.  Additional information is available on the IRC Services & Price List web page.

IRC Technology Update

IRC and second floor computers have been successfully updated to Windows 7! New scanners have been installed on fours computers outside the IRC and three computers inside the IRC; they will quickly scan items as images or PDF, instructions are located with each scanner.

Also, Adobe professional software has been upgraded and installed on all second floor computers. Thanks for your patience during this process!

IRC Technology: Scanners

The three HP Scanjet 4300 C scanners located on the listening lab (west) side of the second floor are currently out of order. Signs are posted on the scanners and help tickets for each have been submitted (10/8/08).

All other scanners on the second floor, both inside and outside of the Instructional Resource Center, are working.

Additionally, new scanner directions have been created for the HP Scanjet 4600 scanners (clear top, scan face-up). One side is a quick scan for EDCI 131/504 students scanning to file and the other is for using the Imaging Gallery.

Update: 10/17/08
Scanners are all in working order.

IRC: Color Printing

The color printer is currently unavailable in the Instructional Resource Center. A help ticket has been submitted to Information Technology.

Summer Technology changes

Ashland University has changed email providers; student email is now powered by Google and Faculty & Staff email is Microsoft Exchange.

Computers on the library second floor and inside the IRC have migrated to Active Directory.


At this time a glitch in the system process has removed network printers from available second floor and main floor computer stations.

If you are working on the second floor during regular IRC operating hours, printing help is available in the IRC. Help is available at the reference and circulation desk for computer users on the main floor of the library.

The Information Technology web site has tutorials and information available for both Active Directory & Email Migration:

• Student Email Transition to GMail
• Email Migration for Faculty & Staff
• Video Demo for Microsoft Exchange
• Login & Set your password for AD

Laminator Repaired

The roll-top laminator is once again working. Issues with machine temperature and film type have resulted in examining and ultimately using a different film.

New film will not change the pricing already in place for the laminator.

Roll-Top Laminator

The roll-top laminator is currently out-of-order. A service call was placed this morning and they are investigating the problem. We hope to have the problem solved soon.

Thanks for your patience!

IRC Printing

To facilitate students wishing to work on the second floor when the IRC is closed, the regular IRC printer has been moved from inside the IRC and placed next to the venda card copy machine. Student workers leaving at 11 pm will fill this printer with paper and additional paper is, as always, located in the cabinet beneath the copy machine.

The color printer will be unavailable to students during the new library extended hours. We recommend anyone wishing to print color when the IRC is closed use the color printer in Patterson.

It's here! The new laminator

The new laminator, a GBC HeatSeal Ultima 65, has arrived in the IRC and is ready for use. Similar to the laminators in several neighboring school districts, this machine not only has several safety features in place, but also offers a quieter laminating process.

Process differs slightly in that lighter weight items (copy paper and construction paper) should be fed through more quickly than heavier items (file folders and poster board). Please ask for help when using this machine for the first time.

Roll Top Laminator

Out of Order! Out of Order!

The "big" roll-top laminator is currently out of order. A repair call has been placed and we hope to have it available soon.

Two desk top laminators are available for smaller jobs; keep in mind at $1.00 per sheet usage is expensive for larger projects.
