{{eunispecific}}[[EVE University]] maintains [[Blueprints#Blueprint_Originals|BPO]] libraries in Stacmon and PC9. These libraries are meant to give budding industrialists the opportunity to make copies of the library's often fully researched BPOs in order to pursue their own endeavors. The process of copying from these BPOs does not vary from community to community. The only requirement to use the libraries is that you obtain the [[Freshman]] title. Each BPO library will generally contain BPOs that align with the interests of that area.
Most campuses have a BPO library located inside a Hangar called Industry. Every unista that has the freshman title or above can see and use this hangar. It's not a container, it's a hangar.
 
  
Note: these instructions do not apply to the headquarters station in Slays. Although this station does have an Industry hangar, you can't copy the blueprints there because the station doesn't have a blueprint copying service.
+
This article is intended to be a general resource on creating copies of BPOs for your personal use as an E-UNI member.

When you access this hangar, you won't be able to take out the BPOs, but you'll be able to right click on them and select Use Blueprint. Only directors can take things out of this hangar, be careful.

=== Before You Start ===
  
[[file:Using from industry hangar.png]]
+
Here is what you should know before using a community BPO library service:
 +
* '''You need the [[Freshman]] title in order to use the service.'''
 +
** You will need this in order to be able to see the corporation-owned BPOs in the Industry window.
 +
* '''Don't put anything into the Blueprint Library (BPO containers).'''
 +
** Only [[Directors]] and the [[CEO]] have full access to the BPO containers. All other EVE University members can only ''place'' items in the hangar (not pull out items) and use the blueprints in the hangar to make copies. If you accidentally place an item in the hangar, you will need assistance from one of the aforementioned roles to get your item back.
 +
* '''Always ensure that you can access the output location for your copy jobs.'''
 +
** By default, your copy jobs will have the Blueprint Library as the output location. Ensure that you change the output to somewhere you have full access to, such as the BPC Delivery container in the hangar. You will have to do this for ''every'' copy job.
 +
* '''Limit the amount of time you are using a blueprint for copying to 24 hours and wait 24 hours before using the same blueprint again.'''
 +
** Community BPO libraries are a service for ''all'' unistas. Allow your fellow unistas to make copies as well.
 +
* '''Keep the amount of blueprints you use simultaneously at a reasonable level.'''
 +
** Again, this is a matter of being courteous to your fellow unistas that are also using the service. If you have questions about what a reasonable level is, contact the community management for the library you are using.
 +
* '''Always use your personal wallet to pay for your jobs.'''
 +
** You are responsible for all costs associated with your copy jobs. You may see a wallet other than your personal wallet as your default payment source when starting a job. Ensure that you change it to your personal wallet before starting a job.
 +
* '''Never deliver jobs belonging to other unistas.'''
 +
** If you need to have someone else's job delivered and the job has been complete for several days, contact a [[manager]] or [[director]].
  
Another way of accessing the BPOs is using the correct filters on the Blueprint tab of the industry window. This can take some time to load, as the uni has a lot of BPOs and BPCs.
+
=== Installing a Copy Job ===
  
[[file:Industry hangar in industry window.jpg]]
+
In order to set up a copy job, bring up your industry window (shortcut: Alt-S). You will see 5 filters available. Set the first filter to ''Owned by corp'' if it isn't already. Use the second filter to select the structure where the BPO is located. Use the third filter, if desired, to limit the BPOs visible in the main list by storage container. Set the fourth filter to ''Originals'' if it isn't already. The fifth filter is for choosing the BPO types you want to see, which can further limit the BPOs listed. Once you have done this, click on the blueprint you want to make copies from.
  
Once the BPO is selected in any of those ways you'll see it in the industry view. You won't be able to use it to build things, you'll only be able to make copies for yourself or your alts, and then use that copy to build or do invention.
+
<br>
'''IMPORTANT''' when you first see the BPO, you'll see that the output of copies is directed to the Industry hangar. you must '''NOT''' keep it that way, because the copy will end in the hangar and the Campus staff can't take it from there. Only people with Director access can take things from there.

Once you are in the industry window with a blueprint selected, it is time to set up our copy job. On the top half of the Industry window, you should see six buttons, four of which will be clickable. Click on the fourth button to indicate you want to start a copy job. Look at the output location. It should be set to the '''BPC Delivery''' container. It is very important that you change the output, since you will not be able to retrieve your copies if they end up in the Blueprint Library. After selecting your desired output location, make sure to check your wallet selection for the job by clicking the button to the left of the job cost. Ensure that your personal wallet is selected as the payment source. At this point, you are ready to start the job. Click ''Start'' to begin your job.
  
Instead of using the industry hangar for the output, you'll need to redirect it to a hangar you have access to, like the Alpha hangar or the Theta hangar. Use the slider below the output to redirect the output to the desired location.

Open the industry window (shortcut: Alt-S). Click on the '''Jobs''' tab. You should see four filters available. You do not need to touch these assuming you are using the default options. The first filter should be set to '''Owned by corp'''. The second filter should be set to either '''All active Jobs''' or '''Ready for delivery'''. The third filter should be set to '''All activities''' or '''Copying'''. The final filter should be set to '''Installed by me'''. This option will ensure that you do not deliver other people's jobs. Jobs that are ready to be delivered will have a '''Deliver''' button in place of the countdown in the status column. Click on this button to deliver your job to the output location you chose. Make sure you move the finished copy to your personal hangar promptly.

Once the job is delivered, the BPO you copied will be available for general use again.
  
In this case the you can see two errors: 'Insufficient Funds' because the wallet you are trying to use doesn't have the funds, and 'Current Skills do not support the number of jobs you are trying to install' which happens if you are already using all your research lines. If it's only the funds message, click on the little star beside the job cost and change the wallet to your personal wallet and you are set to go.

EVE University maintains BPO libraries in Stacmon and PC9. These libraries are meant to give budding industrialists the opportunity to make copies of the library's often fully researched BPOs in order to pursue their own endeavors. The process of copying from these BPOs does not vary from community to community. The only requirement to use the libraries is that you obtain the Freshman title. Each BPO library will generally contain BPOs that align with the interests of that area.

This article is intended to be a general resource on creating copies of BPOs for your personal use as an E-UNI member.

Making Copies

Here is what you should know before using a community BPO library service:

  • You need the Freshman title in order to use the service.
    • You will need this in order to be able to see the corporation-owned BPOs in the Industry window.
  • Don't put anything into the Blueprint Library (BPO containers).
    • Only Directors and the CEO have full access to the BPO containers. All other EVE University members can only place items in the hangar (not pull out items) and use the blueprints in the hangar to make copies. If you accidentally place an item in the hangar, you will need assistance from one of the aforementioned roles to get your item back.
  • Always ensure that you can access the output location for your copy jobs.
    • By default, your copy jobs will have the Blueprint Library as the output location. Ensure that you change the output to somewhere you have full access to, such as the BPC Delivery container in the hangar. You will have to do this for every copy job.
  • Limit the amount of time you are using a blueprint for copying to 24 hours and wait 24 hours before using the same blueprint again.
    • Community BPO libraries are a service for all unistas. Allow your fellow unistas to make copies as well.
  • Keep the amount of blueprints you use simultaneously at a reasonable level.
    • Again, this is a matter of being courteous to your fellow unistas that are also using the service. If you have questions about what a reasonable level is, contact the community management for the library you are using.
  • Always use your personal wallet to pay for your jobs.
    • You are responsible for all costs associated with your copy jobs. You may see a wallet other than your personal wallet as your default payment source when starting a job. Ensure that you change it to your personal wallet before starting a job.
  • Never deliver jobs belonging to other unistas.
    • If you need to have someone else's job delivered and the job has been complete for several days, contact a manager or director.

Installing a Copy Job

In order to set up a copy job, bring up your industry window (shortcut: Alt-S). You will see 5 filters available. Set the first filter to Owned by corp if it isn't already. Use the second filter to select the structure where the BPO is located. Use the third filter, if desired, to limit the BPOs visible in the main list by storage container. Set the fourth filter to Originals if it isn't already. The fifth filter is for choosing the BPO types you want to see, which can further limit the BPOs listed. Once you have done this, click on the blueprint you want to make copies from.

Delivering a Copy Job

Open the industry window (shortcut: Alt-S). Click on the Jobs tab. You should see four filters available. You do not need to touch these assuming you are using the default options. The first filter should be set to Owned by corp. The second filter should be set to either All active Jobs or Ready for delivery. The third filter should be set to All activities or Copying. The final filter should be set to Installed by me. This option will ensure that you do not deliver other people's jobs. Jobs that are ready to be delivered will have a Deliver button in place of the countdown in the status column. Click on this button to deliver your job to the output location you chose. Make sure you move the finished copy to your personal hangar promptly.
