3D Printing

The library offers 3D printing services at our Santori Library, Eola Road Branch, and West Branch locations. Please review the rules below before submitting a 3D printing request form. 


Cost: 3D prints cost $0.05 per gram. Payment can be made with cash or card at pickup. 
Size: The maximum build volume is 256x256x256 mm. All 3D prints will be limited to a maximum of 8 hours of print time. Oversized files will be scaled down to fit the maximum print time. 
Material: All requests will be printed in PLA filament. If supports are used, it is the responsibility of the customer to remove them. We cannot accommodate requests for specific colors. 
File: Files should be in STL format (.stl). The maximum allowable file size is 16 MB and up to 5 files can be accepted per request. Submissions of multiple files will be printed on the same build plate if possible. The following types of files will not be considered for printing: 

  • Prohibited by local, state, or federal law. 
  • Unsafe, harmful, dangerous, or which could reasonably be mistaken for a weapon. 
  • Inappropriate for printing in a public space. 


Pickup: Requests will be completed in the order received at the customer's preferred location. An email notification will be sent when the 3D print is ready for pickup. Please allow at least 7 business days for completion. 3D prints left unclaimed after 30 days become the property of the library and may be discarded. Completed prints can be picked up in the Makerspace at Santori Library and in the computer labs at West Branch and Eola Road Branch. 
Limit: Each customer or group will be limited to a maximum of 3 print jobs per month. 

Disclaimers: 
Library staff do not design 3D models for customers. We recommend Tinkercad as a free, web-based design app for beginners. Free 3D models can also be downloaded from Thingiverse. 
Please include requests for infill or supports in the Comments. Requests submitted without specifications will be printed with default settings. All 3D prints will be printed at standard quality. 
The library offers 3D printing services as a learning opportunity and a hobby-level experience for the general public. The final result of the 3D printing process can be affected by a number of variables and prints are not guaranteed to come out as intended. The library is not responsible for failed or unsatisfactory prints and does not refund printing fees for completed items. 
The library reserves the right to refuse any 3D print request.
