YOU are financially responsible for the full price of replacing these if returned incomplete, NOT the worker. It is in your best interest to check each case before leaving the desk.

If the campus is closed due to weather or other extenuating circumstances, you will have an additional 24 hours after campus is reopened to return the equipment.

All reservations that were scheduled for the day that the campus is closed or that conflict with the extension of an existing checkout will be cancelled.
