To reduce waste, the printer is currently set to print double-sided only. If single-sided printing is required formatting for an assignment, please talk to the Circulation Staff.
If your document doesn't print right away, that usually means multiple people are trying to print at the same time, or you sent something to the printer from off-campus. To print from the queue:
Rates:
Black and White Printing: $0.10 per page
Full-Colour Printing: $0.50 per page

King's faculty and staff can request guest accounts for visitors; learn how by logging into the ITS Sharepoint. Please note that there are connection issues that mean guests cannot connect to the Wi-Fi with Chromebooks.
For help accessing the wireless network, please contact any of the IT Help Desks at Dalhousie University.
Lockers are available for rental in the Library on a per-term basis. Locks are supplied.
Due to limited availability, these are only available to current University of King's College students, faculty, and staff. ID will be needed for registration.
Locker fee is $5.00 per term (Summer, Fall, or Winter) plus a $5.00 deposit. Cash only.
When not reserved for consultations, the Rare Book Consulting Room is available to King's students, faculty and staff as a Group Study Room during the Library's open hours.
