Copying

Copiers are located in the copy room (1st floor), in the textbook collection (ground floor) and in the open stacks (1st + 2nd basement).
Copies can be paid for via the student ID card or via the MensaCard of the Studierendenwerk (Student Support Services). A device for topping up the cards is located in the foyer next to the entrance to the textbook collection.
Coin copiers are available in the copy room and in the open stacks. Please note that the coin copiers do not give change.

The copiers installed in the ULB are operated by a company. Unfortunately, the ULB has therefore only limited influence on the quality and functionality of the devices. If you have any problems, please contact the staff of the ULB or the CIT.

Scanning

E-scan

E-scans are available in the copy room (1st floor), in the open stack on the 2nd basement, and in the DigiLab. With these devices, you can photograph your template up to DIN A2 with a permanently installed camera – a method that is particularly material-friendly. The digitised documents are saved as PDF or JPG files. Please use a USB stick to store the data. An almost self-explanatory user guide with touch screen supports the easy and fast operation of the device.

Scan2Mail

Members of the university (with a university ID) can use the free Scan2Mail service at the copying machines in the ULB, i. e. they can use the copiers as scanners and send their scans to their university email address. You will find instructions for scanning near the devices.

The default scanning performance is comparable to the printing performance, which means that you can scan about 25 documents per minute via the document feeder. The maximum size of an email may not exceed approximately 15 MB (this corresponds to about 120 pages of text at 200 dpi in PDF format).

Scan2Stick

You can also use the free Scan2Stick service on the copiers in the ULB, i. e. you can use the copiers as scanners and save the scans on a USB stick or SD card.

Microform scanner

A microform scanner for the re-enlargement of micro-materials is available in the ULB's DigiLab. You can scan microfiches and microfilms yourself free of charge and save them on a storage medium (USB stick or CD/DVD).

Saving or email dispatch

You can save search results, websites and other files directly to a USB stick or send them by email. For detailed instructions, please refer to the information desk. The staff there will be happy to assist you personally in saving the data.

Printing

You can print pdf files (and jpeg/jpg or tiff/tif files; you can convert Word files into pdf format with the help of the saving instructions) directly from a USB stick that you connected to a copier or retrieve sent print jobs (members of the University of Münster only). You can pay with the student ID card, MensaCard or coins (see "Copying"); employees can use their copier PIN.

A detailed manual is placed next to the copiers.
