Technology Loans

We might have just what you need! Technology loans are divided into items:

  • located in the self service course reserves area (smaller items)
  • requested at the Info Desk (large electronic devices such as laptops, monitors, and cameras)
  • booked using MS Bookings (through the Makerspace)

Large electronic devices (laptops, monitors, cameras, etc.) should be returned directly to the Info Desk. Small items should be returned to the wooden "Book return" boxes located inside and outside of the entrance to the library. Some Makerspace items can only be used in the makerspace, and others can be borrowed. Pick-up and return from the Makerspace is during operating hours.

 

Please note that late returns will be subject to a fee of $0.50 per item per hour.
