The U.S. Postal Service has announced increases from 2-4.1 percent overall for Priority, Express, Media, International, and special services such as Certified Mail starting January 26, 2020. First-class letter mail remains the same with no increase and is .55 for a first-class stamp. Mailing services director Mary Scroggins would like to provide this information as a service to UP faculty, staff, and students. Scroggins most likely had nothing to do with the increased rates.

The deadline for fall 2019 course pack materials and lab manual requests from faculty to printing services came and went on Monday, June 24, 2019, according to Mary Scroggins, printing services. To date her office has received a total of 13 requests.
All faculty are asked to submit their requests as soon as possible.

Printing services produced 5,730 course packs for the 2018-2019 school year, with a total of 627,781 pages.
Course syllabi requests must be received by printing services by August 12, 2019 as well.

The printing and mailing services office and the Pilot House bookstore are now partnering for the purchase of course packs and lab manuals, according to Mary Scroggins, printing and mailing services. This new process goes into effect for spring 2019 orders. Exams, handouts, and other not-for-purchase items will not be affected.
Faculty will still send their requests to printjobs@up.edu. Printing services will submit all materials to be purchased for classes through an outside vendor, Xanedu. The vendor will then create print-ready documents with a barcode embedded so the bookstore can sell them.
To ensure that there are no delays in students receiving class materials, please follow these guidelines:
Once your order is finalized, Xanedu will send it to printing services for production. Printing services will no longer directly handle any of the copyright clearance authorization or file preparation for course packs and lab manuals. When the order is complete, printing services will deliver it to the bookstore for student purchase.
Please keep in mind that it is critical to order purchased class materials on time. Printing services can no longer just print late orders on the spot.
For any questions about this change, contact Kassie Hansen, printing and mailing services, at x8101, or Linda Gill or Mary Scroggins at x7200.
