Lamination and Binding Policies

We are pleased to announce the purchase of a brand-new laminator in the Carroll University Library.  Our new machine will help us provide you with a more efficient service and a higher quality product.  Please note that our lamination and binding policies have been updated for fall 2007. 

Materials to be laminated and/or bound may be taken to the Learning Commons desk on the lower level of the library.

Hours:
Monday - Thursday 9am-8pm
Friday 9am - 1pm

Items will be completed while you wait. As the laminator takes time to warm up before usage, please allow a minimum of 15 minutes for completion of your order.  Actual processing time will depend on the size of the order and the number of orders to be completed.

Cost:
Lamination: $.25/foot (rounded up to the nearest whole foot)
Binding: $.25 per comb 

Size limitations:
Maximum width for items to be laminated: 24"
Maximum length: No limit
Binding combs are 11" long but can be cut down to a smaller size.
Items as think as 2" may be bound.

Important! Please NOTE:

• While we will make every effort to complete your order immediately, there may be times where we are completing multiple or large orders.  We appreciate your patience.
• Patrons will not be allowed to laminate their own orders. Library staff trained in the lamination and binding processes will handle all requests.

• Unless otherwise specified, all materials will be bound on the left hand side.
