Copy Center now open 10 a.m. to 5 p.m. Mon.-Fri.
2014-06-09 10:00 (America/Los_Angeles) | WA
Beginning Monday, June 9, the Copy Center will be open 10:00 am to 5:00 pm Monday-Friday. Previous hours were 11:00am-4:30 pm with an hour closure for lunch. They will no longer be closing for lunch.
Along with this change, the back door to the copy center will remain locked until 10:00 am. There is a shipping/ receiving area and there is a safety and security concern with individuals freely accessing the copy center before open hours through this door.
Individuals may always make arrangements with the copy center staff for situations requiring access prior to 10:00 AM.I will ask Melissa to send out an announcement to campus regarding this change.
These changes will improve our customer service and make us more accessible to the campus and staff. Let me know if you have any questions.
Thanks,
