Items for Checkout
UPDATE: IT Services has eliminated Audio Visual (AV) Check Out Services that was once held in Gaskill Hall. The equipment has been dispersed, with a few items coming to the Libraries System. We have not assumed the services that went along with the previous service such as delivery, set up, and reservations etc. The items received by the libraries are merely additions to the libraries' collection of digital equipment.
Available for loan to students, staff, and faculty are: projectors, portable PA systems, tripods, projection screens, digital cameras, video cameras, and audio recorders. They are available only as a first-come, first-served basis with a loan period of 24-hours. These items cannot be reserved and are available on a walk-in basis only. Watch the this page for an updated list of items available.
For questions please contact Lisa Santucci (513-529-1747).
