- Printing in excess of 50 pages, regardless of the number of documents.
- Printing more than one copy of an electronic reserve document.
- The reproduction or duplication of any copyrighted materials for purposes other than private study, scholarship, or research, or the printing of multiple copies of copyrighted materials, as stipulated in the "fair use" section of Title 17 of the U.S. Code.

Compliance with Library Copying & Printing Policies
Compliance with the policies and guidelines for the use of Library copying and printing facilities is expected as part of participation in an academic community. Failure to comply with the Montante Family Library policies, or failure to behave in an ethically responsible manner, may result in the loss of Library privileges.
