We are happy to offer our laptop lending program once again! Due to overwhelming demand, we needed to change our policy, so we could serve as many students as possible. Here are a few key highlights:
- Laptop loan periods have been aligned to our eight-week classes. Our first round of checkouts for lending laptops will be due on October 4.
-
We lend out laptops on a first come first served basis. Requesting is online, however, students can also come in to check out laptops, starting at 8:00 am on the first day of classes. The instructions to place a hold and the current laptop lending policy are available online at https://getlibraryhelp.highlands.edu/c.php?g=1335786&p=9853583
- With our current overwhelming demand and total of 80 lendable laptops, we do not expect to be able to renew laptops for longer than eight weeks. However, students are eligible to renew once if there are no existing requests or required maintenance.
- For students experiencing unusual hardships or other issues with the laptop lending program, please have them contact Jessica Osborne or Julius Fleschner for exceptions.
We are trying to remain student focused and are open to suggestions for the future.
