I鈥檓 getting messages that I haven鈥檛 returned equipment.  What should I do?

Please contact or the MRC, depending on where you borrowed or returned the equipment.  It may not have been checked back in to the system.

I sent you an email asking for equipment, but when I came to A-V, nothing was available.  Why is this?

Because we serve requests for all the academic departments on campus, there are times when equipment will not be available.  This is especially true in the middle and at the end of the semester.

Please, do not assume that equipment will be reserved for you just because you have requested it.  When the A-V department gets a request, we usually contact the requesting party to verify what the equipment is for, what equipment is needed, and other parameters of the loan.  Once it is entered into our calendar, we will send a confirmation message.

Occasionally, due to events beyond our control, we will need to make substitutions just before your loan.

Please be sure to return your equipment on time.  Other people may be depending on it for their project, and by keeping it 鈥渙ne extra day,鈥 you may cause severe problems for them.
