Checkout Policy

  • You can only borrow one of a particular type of equipment during a single loan period (for example, you cannot borrow two cameras at the same time).
  • Requests are walk-in only, and equipment is loaned on a first-come, first-served basis.
  • Returned equipment cannot be immediately checked out again. Returned equipment is processed by circulation staff between each checkout to ensure it is intact and in working order.
  • Overdue fines and replacement fees will be charged on library equipment.
