centros de apuntes

Spanish to English Other Printing & Publishing university campus service
"Las obras se utilizaban en sus (de las universidades) intranet y centros de apuntes y fotocopiados para fotocopiar o digitalizar y posteriormente redistribuirlas por correo electrónico."

This is one isolated sentence with a university-context (mentioning internal services).
The remainder talks about copyright issues in law. The only other bit of context I can add is that it talks about the Chilean system (it's a Chilean text). Interestingly, I cannot find reference on the actual university websites.

So photocopy (print, copy, scan) centre it is, apuntes are the notes/study texts I assume (as in the photocopied books for study purposes), so what would be the service equivalent of that at a university campus for it to be a "centro de apuntes y fotocopiados"? Any ideas, ideally UK/European English, but other variants may work.

Thanks in advance for any tip or suggestion!

Yes. It might be more about sharing information on line without printing paper.

Second suggestion - uc > (Study) Resource centre < So the second suggestion would be like an intranet with resources/networks.

That would make sense, as the reprographics is covered by the "photocopy" part of centre.

Thank you so much, this has been very useful!

Reprographics Thank you for the quick response! That seems to be it.

I think the distributing part talks about the licensing (copyright, which the rest of the text is about).

Here's a reference to a centre for an exchange of study notes. It seeks to use an on-line portal to exchange summaries, lessons and study aids on the various course sections in sociology studies. http://www.centrodeapuntes.uc.cl/

A reprographics section at a college would take charge of all printing, photocopying and course material production of booklets filled with the study materials and components of an assigned course. It might be relevant but in the sense of the question it seems to be the equivalent with digital reproduction and e-mail re-distribution of the same.
