The plotter is now available in the computer lab in the first floor of the Q-Center. Please note that there is not student support for poster formatting and printing except during designated high-volume poster session preparation hours, which will be communicated by your course instructors or posted on this website. This plotter is intended for academic printing purposes only.

Instructions about poster printing can be found at ITS web site.

Students can request poster releases from Q-Center staff within the following hours:

• Monday - Thursday : 9:00 am - 8:00 pm
• Friday : 9:00 am - 430 pm
• Sunday : noon - 8:00 pm

Users may request the release of their job by emailing Q-Center@middlebury.edu and including the name of the print job and their username. Jobs that are not specifically requested to be released will remain in the papercut queue. The front-desk attendants cannot release your posters. Some faculty will also release their own students’ posters, and you may inquire with your course instructor. 

Both students and faculty can book space in the Q-Center for any kind of testing in your STEM and quantitative courses.  

Students: the Q-Center has private study carrels in our no-talking Quiet Room that you can use on demand (without booking). If you need a closed-door space, there are three small, private rooms that you can request to book ahead of time. To request a private room, please email the Q-Center at q-center@middlebury.edu with the time, date, and duration of your booking request. Alternatively, please see the Q-Center Director, Lauren Kordonowy, to request a space booking in person.  

Please note that our private rooms will fill very quickly during midsemester and final exam periods, especially during our peak evening hours 7-10pm. Please request your booking as far in advance as possible! We will respond to your request within 48 hours; if you require a space on shorter notice, please come to the Q-Center to request one in person. 

Faculty: in addition to the Quiet Room or private rooms you can book for your students, we also have 2 classrooms (MBH 168 and MBH 169) and a small computer lab (4 computers) that can be requested as a testing space. The computer lab machines will have an Internet-free, Microsoft Suite-only login function for testing purposes. Please email the Q-Center Director, Lauren Kordonowy at lkordonowy@middlebury.edu to request any of the Q-Center spaces.  

Please note that although students may check out scientific and TI-89 calculators or computer chargers for testing purposes when appropriate, the Q-Center does not have the ability to store, administer, proctor, or collect testing materials from students who take them in the Q-Center. If your students are using a Q-Center space for testing, they must collect and return all testing materials to appropriate locations outside the Q-Center OR the instructor/proctor can personally bring the test to the student in the Q-Center.
