The above data represent total expenditures on paper products from the UW-Madison housed Digital Publishing & Printing Services unit (https://printing.wisc.edu/) and any other paper purchases completed through a business services unit and allocated to a UW-Madison account. While there may be paper purchases made outside of business services units this data should capture the majority of paper purchases for campus. Data was compiled from FY18.
