Additional Information
Black and white and color printing for students is available from public desktop computers on the main level 3 of the library.
Each semester, all enrolled students receive $12.50 worth of credits good for 250 black and white pages.
The printed pages are deducted from this balance. Black and white prints are deducted at $.05 per page and color prints are deducted at $.25 per page. If students exceed this amount, they will be billed.
On-campus users are automatically logged in to the library's databases and online resources. However, if you are off-campus or in the dorms, you must log in with your RIC User ID and RIC Password. If you have difficulty logging in, please contact kayton@shuiis.com.
