Have you ever been working on a College of Charleston project when your laptop suddenly dies? Maybe you are planning a major presentation, but realize that you don’t have the electronic equipment needed to complete the job.

The Division of Information Technology understands your frustration. That’s why they have the electronic loaner equipment program. This program allows College of Charleston employees the ability to rent, free of charge, a variety of electronic products for a short period of time.

Five things to know about the program

1. The program is open to all CofC faculty and staff.
2. Products include webcams, laptop computers, video cameras and tripods, projectors and other electronic equipment.
3. You may take advantage of the program by submitting a request online in advance or walking up to one of the following locations:

• Access and Instruction Desk in the Marlene and Nathan Addlestone Library: Mondays–Thursdays, 7:30 a.m.–7 p.m., and Friday, 7:30 a.m.–4 p.m.
