Surplus and Reissue Procedures
Surplus furniture, fixtures, equipment, and supply items that are usable can be reissued to another department of the university and other Pennsylvania State System schools. When it is determined, by the owning department, that an item has served its original purpose and no longer provides value to the original department, the item can then be determined eligible for the surplus disbursement/disposal program.
