Checking-Out

- It is strongly recommended that all gear is tested prior to leaving the vicinity of the Digital Media Center. This is to ensure that all the gear in your reservation is there and properly working.

- You are responsible for the gear once it is in your possession. Equipment testing should be performed in a secure location.

- Should equipment be missing from your order, you experience issues with the gear, or you need additional gear, please speak with the equipment manager during the DMC hours of operation in Wax #118. The equipment manager will also be able to respond to you via email between 9am - 5pm on weekdays at wfazekas@endicott.edu.

Returning

- All equipment must be present when returned by the student. Prior to the gear being checked-in, loaned equipment will be inspected in accordance with the "Equipment Return Checklist."

- If you experience any issues or the gear is damaged, please make a report to the equipment manager.
