Welcome to Design & Print Services (formerly Repro)
Based within ITS, and utilising the latest technologies, our customer-focussed, and award-winning, team in Design & Print Services (D&PS) provide an integrated range of professional and value-for-money document production services and facilities in-house for Goldsmiths. These encompass all stages, from design, artworking and advice on best-value production methods, branding and copyright compliance, through to printing, finishing and scanning and digitisation. And we do photocopying too!
We also offer a print-buying service, using tested and approved external suppliers, for those occasional projects that are best-value when out-sourced.
In collaboration with the College's Procurement team, we manage contracts for the supply of multifunctional printers, scanners and copiers, network and desktop printers, and papers and toners, to departments, and we also run paper and toner recycling, and secure shredding, schemes, campus-wide.
Our services are generally available to all staff and students. More information will be found in the links to the right, and if you cannot find what you are looking for please contact us; we are usually able to tailor our services to meet your requirements.
Location
We are located in Hut B-F, at the rear of 30 Lewisham Way. [ Campus map ]
Opening Times
We are staffed and operational Monday to Friday, 9am to 5pm, throughout term-time and vacation.
Drop-in visitors are always welcome, or you can make an appointment with our Designers, Administrator or Manager using the College's diary system, or by contacting us direct.
Value For Money
We are part of Goldsmiths and are not a sub-contracted commercial service. We operate on a cost-recovery financial model, in line with College policy, and use many industry-standard business practices day-to-day, and our main aim is to save our customers money, by delivering high quality, cost-efficient, print-related facilities and services, to support their work and the College's Mission and Aims and Objectives.
Our staff team are committed to providing you with expert, professional advice on how to maximise the budgets you have for producing your printed materials, and to work in partnership with other internal services on campus to get them produced and delivered on time and at the right price.
This applies for all types of documentation, whether it is for teaching and learning, recruitment, promotional, administrative, pastoral, or research purposes, or if it is printed and/or digitised centrally in our production areas, or locally on equipment we have supplied to your department, or out-sourced on your behalf to the approved supplers.
This integration of facilities and services is key to our financial operation, enabling us to achieve and deliver economies of scale and maximise the College's spend overall on print and related areas.
We make charges (aka recharges) to your department’s Agresso account, or to your PCounter account if you are a student or conference participant (or a staff member using us for private orders), for all the production services we undertake for you. Our prices are set to recover our operating costs, including overheads. We do not charge VAT for internal work, as the College has a self-supply exemption with C&E as a charitable organisation.
Along with other services within ITS, we are committed to publishing evidence of our performance, to enable the College and our customers to assess how successful we are at delivering Value-For-Money. Some stats and our KPI results will be found here.
