Printing and scanning
Staff and students have access to multi-functional devices (MFDs) throughout Vernon Square and Somerset House, which can be used to print, scan or copy documents.
Visitor printing is currently being updated. Please ask a member of staff when visiting the library or contact us at library@courtauld.ac.uk.
On this page you will find information on how to top-up your account and print from a personal computer. You can also download these two helpful guides for quick reference:
