Definitions

Authorized Personnel

The University will allow faculty and staff to borrow personal computers and related equipment in order to fulfill their responsibility to the University.

The equipment can be borrowed only upon the written authorization of the Chairperson, or the department head of the department from which the equipment is being borrowed. An "Equipment Check-out Permission Form" may be obtained from the Warehouse.

Responsibility

It is the responsibility of the lending department to maintain a record of the equipment which has been loaned to a faculty or staff member. Students are not permitted to borrow computer equipment.

The University auditors and the State auditors will expect each department to provide copies of authorizations for any equipment which has been loaned and not returned. The borrower may be asked to temporarily return the equipment for verification.
