There are scanners located in the Emerson Library in the 2nd floor eCommons area, the 1st and 2nd floors of the 24/7 Computer Lab, in various viewing carrels on the 1st floor, and on the lower level. Documents scanned at these computers can then be printed in the library.

*Documents scanned will be saved to the computers. Remember to delete your documents from the computer after you are done with the scanners

Printing is available to Webster University students, staff, and faculty. There are printers in the 2nd Floor eCommons area, the 24/7 computer lab, and on the lower level.

There are computers throughout the library, with the majority of them being on the lower level, in the 24/4 computer lab, and in the 2nd floor eCommons area.

The computer screen is black

If the computer isn't showing anything on the monitor, follow these steps.

1. Click the mouse and wait a few seconds to see if anything shows up on the screen.


2. Tap the space bar a couple of times, then wait a few seconds to see if anything shows up on the screen.


3. Check the side of the computer to make sure it is turned on. You will see a blinking dot if it is turned on. If it is turned off, press the power button to turn it on.


4. If the computer is on, but the monitor doesn't show anything after either of the previous steps, make sure the monitor is turned on. On the under side of the screen there will be a power button, check if it is illuminated. If it is not, press it to turn on the monitor.

After using a computer

When you have finished using a library computer, make sure to restart it. Otherwise, anyone who shows up to use the computer next will be able to see your logins and any files you downloaded!
