First Year Students: Computers, Printers, Photocopiers

Photocopiers are available in the Central and North Reading Rooms, the Main Stacks and at the Branch Libraries (see below).

A color printer is available in the Main Library SINC site. Please note that color printing is NOT included in your print quota.

Both the Central and North Reading Rooms, located on the first floor of the Main Library, also function as computer labs, or SINC sites as we call them here at Stony Brook, with computers and printers available for student use. 

See a full list of computer labs (SINC sites) on campus and get information on capacity and available software.

Scanners are available in the Melville Library in the Main Library SINC Site, the Central Reading, and the North Reading Room.

All registered Stony Brook students have a semester long quota of ~2100 pages ($105) in the SINC Sites, Health Sciences Library, and Residential Computing Centers or by using the Print From Anywhere service. Funding for student printing comes from the Student Technology Fee.  Stony Brook uses the Pharos system to manage printing. 

In order to print, send print jobs to the print queue from a SINC Site computer, or from a personal computer using the web browser,  email, or the Print From Anywhere client (software). Students need their Stony Brook University ID card to release their print jobs.
