[LIBRARYDIR] laptop lending--funding and fees attached?

[Tammy Siebenberg]

Yakima’s 80 student laptops were purchased by Technology Services out of student technology fees.  We only lend them for a week at a time and don’t charge a rental fee, but we do charge $25/day overdue fees up to the replacement cost ($700 for computer, cords, and carry bag).  All of ours are Dell Inspirion 13” 2-in-1’s, selected by Tech Services.  They are kind of fragile – we’ve had to replace the screen on several of them.

Wow, so WWCC is lagging behind on laptop support.

Out of curiosity, if you have this sort of Technology can you share your funding source?  (Library or other department budget, donation, grant funding, or student government, etc.)

And, if you have any sort of fee or fines attached?

Thanks so much!

Everett has about 150 laptops that we rent for $20 per quarter.  A very popular program for many years now!

Hi all,

Our foundation is looking into funding laptops for checkout/lending via our library. Currently, we do have laptops but they stay in-house, and the foundation would like to lend them for a quarter.

Do any of you have programs for longer-term lending? If so, I can contact you separately with some questions.

Thanks very much!
