Microtext Scanning

Microtext (film and fiche) is located in cabinets in the Lower Library. To view microform content, login to the microform workstation and open the viewing software ScanPro 2000. If the microform machine is unavailable, visit the Osgoode circulation desk with your microtext  so you may view it in Scott Library’s microtext room.

How to Pay

The YU-card is the exclusive payment method for photocopying and printing services in the Library. If you are a non-York member or visitor and do not have a YU-card, you can purchase a Guest Card from the YU-card dispenser and account station located in the library’s print and photocopy room, 0010A, or at the Scott Library.  Please see Circulation Staff for a Guest ID to validate your Guest Card prior to use.

There is no charge for using document scanners or the microform machine. Library staff are happy to provide assistance with reproduction equipment.
