I
publicationsdepartment was established in 1952 with a staff of three and one
duplicating machine. Over the years the department has developed into the Swinburne
College Press with a staff of 15 and a full offset printing capacity.
The Press is primarily designed to give a fast print service geared to meet the college's
requirements for the production of class notes, study material and various types of
administrative stationery. The major requirement here is for single colour work but
in addition the press has a limited line colour production capacity. In support of its
printing element the press operates a small bindery to collate, staple and trim
publications and a typing and typesetting service with a range of IBM Selectric and
Composer faces.
The Swinburne College Press is registered under the Business Names Act and is a
recognised printing and publishing house.
