Circulation of Multimedia Equipment & Software

Your ULethbridge identification card is required to borrow any item from the University Library.

The loan periods for equipment and software vary and can be viewed in the “Quick Look” view of its Summon record display.

Items not returned to the Library Services Desk by their due date/time are subject to fines.

Patrons can verify bookings and due dates via their library accounts.

Equipment Availability & Circulation

Equipment includes, but is not limited to, extension cords, digital cameras, laptops (MacOS and Windows), lighting kits, etc.

For a list of specialized multimedia equipment, visit the Project Sandbox website or click here for a complete list of all equipment.

Specifications and loan periods for each equipment item can be browsed in the “Quick Look” view of its Summon record.

Software Availability & Circulation

Software (e.g., CDs, DVDs, LPs, etc.) can be borrowed for up to 7 days and renewed twice unless booked.

Patrons can locate titles via the University Library’s Summon search.

Booking Equipment and Software

Members of the University Community can book equipment and software by self-booking in Summon or contacting the Library Services Desk.

All booked equipment and software must be retrieved from and returned to the University Library.

Bookings may be forfeit if items are not retrieved within 30 minutes of scheduled retrieval time. Alternately, if you arrive more than 30 minutes prior to booking time, then original booking's due date/time may not be honoured and standard borrowing rules applied.

Patrons can verify bookings via their library accounts.

NOTE: Back-to-back bookings of resources is not allowed. Additionally, multiple simultaneous bookings on a single equipment type, by an individual, may not be honoured unless preauthorized. This is done to ensure fair access to the equipment by all members of the University Community.
