Computers, Printers, Scanners, Study Rooms
Computers
The Information Commons on the first floor of the Hesburgh (main)
Library,
surrounding the Information Desk, contains a combination of about 75
Macintosh and Windows desktop computers, color and
black-and-white
printers, scanners and photocopiers. There are areas for group
collaboration. Most computers require a Notre Dame NetID in order to
log in. Campus visitors may request an account to log in to special
“guest access” computers. A few computers (we call them
Research Only computers) do not require login, for quick access to
Library resources, but access to the
network is limited. Computers are also located in each branch library. Learn

Several laptop computers are available at the Circulation Desk for
short-term
check-out to individuals with a valid Notre Dame ID card. Learn

Printers
Hesburgh Libraries uses the same PrintND (Pharos) system as the OIT
Computer Labs. The Hesburgh (main) Library has black-and-white printers
located on the first floor, second floor and lower level, and a color
printer on the first floor. All of the branch libraries have printers,
mostly black-and-white lasers, but some others are available depending
on the location. A Notre Dame NetID is required to use PrintND. Learn more.
You can also request printing services through Fed-Ex Office, Lower
Level, LaFortune Student Center, phone: 574-631-6671.
