Reporting Problems

If you have problems with any equipment, or if any equipment was missing from the bag when you picked up the item, please let us know! We want to make sure the equipment works for you.

Please test the equipment in the library to make sure you know how to operate it and that all equipment is working.

Your Responsibilities

You are financially responsible for these items while they are checked out. Overdue fines are substantial and are applied if the items are 5 minutes late. Many of these items are quite expensive, so please treat them gently.

You are responsible for returning the items on time. Because of our limited supply, someone else may be counting on using it right after you are done.
