Welcome!

Equipment Lending Policies

General

  • Reservations are for short-term, day-of instructional use.
  • Only patrons may retrieve reservations.
  • All equipment is subject to availability.
  • Overdue notices will be generated for equipment not returned. 

Equipment Damage or Loss

Once the equipment has left the L&S ITS Service Desk, you will be held responsible for any damage or missing parts.

  • By checking out equipment, you agree to accept financial responsibility for the replacement of any damaged or missing parts.
  • Replacement costs for some equipment exceeds $1,500. Ensure that the equipment is well secured and cared for while on-loan.

Equipment is only considered returned once all parts have been returned.

  • We strongly encourage you to double-check equipment before leaving the service desk.
  • You may be held responsible if any items are lost or damaged while under your care.

Equipment that is overdue may result in restrictions on a person’s ability to check-out equipment in the future.

  • If your equipment overdue exceeds 10 days, expect to be charged a replacement fee less than or equal to the cost to replace the item(s).
