| − | ##Barnard Print Services is typically regarded as the cheapest, most reliable print vendor in the area. However, they are only open in 13 Milbank (underground in the Milbank building toward the north end of Barnard's campus) on Monday through Friday, 8 am to 5 pm. While turnaround is usually speedy, they should not be used for last minute emergencies. Their list of job types includes print jobs 13" x 19" or smaller, wide format posters or banners (13" x 19"), envelopes (not stationary; offsite production), business reply mail design, and stationary. They accept payment through Barnard accounts and Columbia student group accounts or through credit card purchases (no cash) for student course work and personal work.
