4 Mail and Duplicating emo TO: The University Community FROM: Linda M. Ferrante, Director RE: Requests for Service - Fall Semester Your cooperation is appreciated and helps everyone! Dear Friends and Colleagues: As the fall semester quickly approaches, there are a few suggestions I would like to make to help you to get the services you need. The staff persons of Mail and Duplicating and I are dedicated to providing you with the best possible services through your on-campus facility here in the East Stands. Each year at this time, as most of your already know, and for the benefit of those who don t, there is an overload of work causing possible delays in turnaround on printing and duplicating requests. The following suggestions will help to expedite work more quickly for the entire community. 1. Copying from books, i.e., multiple single copies of pages, is the single most time consuming work request and should not be requested during the period between Aug. 20th to Sept. 20th. Submit the first copy for reproduction, not the book. Also, remember to have your copyright permission. 2. For the fastest service on duplicating submit clean, flat, unstapled, one or two sided, dark typed, 8.5 X 11" originals without thick black edges. Request white paper, two sided, stapled sets in any amount. Turnaround time will be according to the workload present and may vary. 3. For 5 day service on Printing submit camera ready artwork for new jobs, samples of reprint, and indicate ink color, stock color, weight and size. Include your telephone extension and a contact name in case we need to contact you concerning your request. Departments should check there supply of letterhead stationery and envelopes this week and request any printing that you may need as soon as possible. Lastly, always keep your yellow slip and bring it with you when picking up your finished work. Thank You. La Salle University Philadelphia, PA 19141
