Supplies:

All departmental supplies are for official use by the Classics faculty and staff only. Graduate Teaching Assistants have access to supplies necessary for their instructional activities, but they must first receive approval from the office staff.

Computers:

Graduate students have access to the Macintosh computers, printer, and scanner housed in the Classics Student Office (HUMN 330) during hours when the building is open. The Department licenses the TLG and PHI CDROMs which can be searched on a Macintosh. It is also possible to gain access to e-mail, the Norlin catalog (Chinook), and Internet resources in this office.

Photocopying:

Photocopying is one of the Department's most expensive budget items: please make necessary copies only and remember to enter all copies in the log. There is no charge to faculty or staff for instructional or administrative photocopying. Faculty are billed for all other copying. Graduate students are not permitted to use the Department's copier for personal use or for work in courses in which they are enrolled.

Reading Room (HUMN 350)

This room is available for study when the building is open and the room is not otherwise occupied for department functions. Books in the Reading Room do not circulate. The Department would like to build a basic research collection of texts, commentaries, and reference works. Contributions to the Reading Room Fund are welcome.
