Copiers and Copy Cards

Copy Cards

  • Most public access copiers on the Duke campus can now be used with either the standard Duke ID Card Flex account or with the white Copy Cards sold in the libraries. There is no difference in cost between the two systems.
  • Departmental Copy Cards can only be used on Departmental Card machines. See below for locations.

Costs of Copies

  • Copies are $.07 each using either the white Copy Cards or the Duke ID Card Flex account.
  • Copies are $.10 each if paid for with cash. While all public access machines use the card system, only a limited number accept cash. Check the listing below for a breakdown of where cash copies can be made.

Purchasing a Copy Card

  • Copy cards can be purchased at the VTS (Value Transfer Station) machine on the first floor of Perkins Library.  Additional value can be added to existing copy cards through the VTS machine.
  • You can also add money to your personal Duke account in either 5, 10, or 20 dollar increments.
  • There is no longer a change machine located in the Bostock or Perkins Libraries.  You may see if you can procure change from one of the eateries on campus.  The Perk is in the Pavillion, located off the main lobby to Perkins Library.
