Borrow Technology Equipment from the Library

Open access desktop computers are available for use at all LLC locations. 

Wifi hotspots, iPads, and more can be borrowed for up to 7 days, with the possibility of two renewals (subject to availability). Please return all technology equipment to the LLC location you acquired it from.

Changes to LLC Laptop Loan Policy as of Dec 18th, 2023

The LLC laptop loan period is now 8 hours, and the late fee lowered from $5/hr to $1/hr.

Long term loans were designed to support students during the LLC’s closures related to the pandemic and the SJ closure. Supporting students in the current hybrid model of class delivery is best met by shorter term lending. This will allow multiple students to use the same device daily or weekly and will allow students to attend class or work in another location other than the LLC.  

These changes are part of our efforts to ensure equitable access to our resources and improve the reach of our technology programs to as many students as possible. 

Please also note:
Centre for Business students may be eligible for longer term loans depending on their course registration, as some courses require a laptop to participate in and complete work; these students may not have received notice in time to ensure that they had an appropriate device for the start of the first term.
