Scanning Instructions
Several network scanning devices are available: two Xerox digital copiers (mailroom and 3rd floor north), two HP Digital Senders (mail room 147 and reading room 216), and two Toshiba digital copiers in Astronomy and FTPI.
We recommend you always scan documents to your own email address rather than direct to other people, as otherwise you will have no confirmation that they arrive
