It's Open Access Week and to celebrate, I thought I would try to calculate how much it would cost for me to read an article and its bibliography if I couldn't rely on the subscriptions that the Leddy Library currently pays for.

Upcoming talk : A field guide to reading and writing ecosystems

Do you remember learning about ‘food webs’ in school?  Do you remember drawing the inter-connections between plants, animals, and the environment where they live?  On Friday, October 25th, at noon in Room 302 West in the Leddy Library, we’re going to try to draw a different type of web.

Printing at Leddy is now cheaper and greener

The Leddy Library has reduced the price of its network laser printing just in time for the new Fall Semester. Costs are

  • 7 ¢ per side for monochrome (black and white) printing
  • 26 ¢ per side for colour printing

Also of note, our black and white printers now default to double-sided printing. Single sided printing is still available; just select the option before you hit the print button.
