~ Kelly, Library Media Specialist This has been posted to advise everyone that due to a large 3D print queue for course related work, that anything submitted after last Thursday has no guarantee of being completed before the end of classes this week.
We apologize for the inconvenience. ~ Kelly, Library Media Specialist Requests for 3D printed items that are not course-related will not be printed at this time.
We have had an unusual amount of course-related print requests submitted this term, and need to prioritize these between now and the end of April. Once we have finished printing all course-related materials, we will resume regular requests that have already been submitted up to this point. All NEW submissions for items not related to courses will not be printed until the Summer months. Some of the already-submitted items may also end up being printed in the Summer, depending on course-related demand in the coming weeks. ~ Kelly, Library Media Specialist The University has announced a campus-wide closure at 5:30pm today due to the possibility of inclement weather tonight.
Innis, Mills & Thode Libraries will be closed at 5:30pm today, beginning closing procedures at 5:15pm. As a result, Lyons will be closed by 5:15pm, starting closing procedures at 5:00pm. Any bookings extending beyond that point will be cancelled. Keep an eye on McMaster Daily News for further updates. ~ by Kelly, Library Media Specialist Quick update:
Our PLA filament that we were waiting on has arrived today, so the 3D printing service is back online! We were only offline for half a day, a minimal delay. Both printers are running and we're back in business. Thanks for your patience, folks! ~ by Kelly, Library Media Specialist The 3D printing service is currently ON HOLD as of Tuesday, February 14/17.
We have run out of PLA and it is on back-order. There is no known ETA as to when we will be back in service. Please keep this in mind when submitting any requests during this downtime -- there may be significant delays to anything already submitted and not printed, as well as any new requests, as a result of this issue. |
