Lamination Guidelines
Lamination Instructions and Guidelines
Poster and Lamination Requests
Submit all items in a plastic or paper bag.
Please submit your items with the following information: date, name, room number, number of items submitted and any special instructions. Write your name and room number on the back of each item to be laminated.
Small items submitted for lamination (smaller than an index card) should be mounted on an 8 ½ x 11 sheet of paper or remain connected to the original packaging.
Our goal is to return items to you as soon as possible, but please allow at least 2 or more business days for completion.
*Some materials, papers, textures and inks will not laminate successfully. The media center staff is not responsible for items that may easily tear or fall apart during lamination.
