Copier Replacement Project
It's that time of the year: time to replace some of the aging copiers in our district buildings. During replacement time, you will still have access to another copier in your building. Replacements are expected to take thirty minutes to an hour.
All the fun details, including a schedule by building, can be found HERE.
This reminds us...if you utilize the services of the Print Shop that we highlighted HERE, then this is one less worry for you!
