The cost of reproduction depends on the document format and the print quality (black and white or color).
To print, files must be uploaded to a USB drive.
Detailed instructions for use and contacts for reporting malfunctions or problems are available next to the printing machines.
Please note: the library staff may not allow particularly damaged or poorly preserved items be handled and reproduced. Ancient, rare or high value works may be reproduced only after a previous authorization of the library staff.
The reproduction - inside or outside the library - of articles or parts of works is allowed for personal use only and in compliance with the copyright law (n. 633/1941 and subsequent amendments and additions).
