EFTPOS NOW AVAILABLE

 Take the worry out of paying for your printing. The Main Library now has an EFTPOS connection that allows you to add credit to your printing account using your student card and a credit or debit card. | |
|
WIRELESS PRINTING
|
 The eagerly awaited wireless printing service was launched at the beginning of semester two, and it’s proving to be a real time-saver. | |

ALL THE COLOUR SERVICES IN ONE LOCATION
|
Need a colour scanner? It’s part of the multi-function workstation located on the Mezzanine level (Level 3) of the Main Library which is providing much called upon services to our customers.
Offering all the latest features including page cropping and imaging the scanner is easy to use. To access this service simply log onto the adjacent computer and select scanner on the workstation. You’ll soon be capturing, saving and emailing text and images - and all free of charge!
The new scanning workstation also serves as an express colour printing and colour photocopying station, with double sided colour copying also available at a reduced price. So now a visit to the library can include a stop at the multi-function workstation to quickly print those last minute colour pages for presentations and assignments.

| FROM THE DIRECTOR |
This is the first issue of iNews combining the news from the entire Information Services unit. Information Services (formerly Library and Technology Services) has been working as one unit to offer an integrated information and technology service to the Bond community since late last year. The synergies created as a result of this union have been tremendous. We aim to offer a one-stop shop service to all our customers using all our resources across the whole unit.  |
| RESOURCES UPDATE |
|
New research at Bond is well supported by the Library’s constantly growing collection of electronic resources. After careful selection and testing by our specialist Librarians new resources are regularly added to the collection.
