Changes to LLC Laptop Loan Policy Coming on December 18th, 2023
Please see below an important message regarding laptop loaning:
Dear Students,
We are changing our laptop circulation policies for the Winter term which will take effect Dec 18, 2023.
Beginning Dec 18, 2023, the LLC laptop loan period will return to 8 hours. We will have a limited number of devices available for a one-week loan period. Continuing Education students will be eligible to borrow laptops for 8 hour loans. Centre for Business students many be eligible for longer term loans depending on their course registration .
The LLC will also lower the late fee from $5/hr to $1/hr.
The term long 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.
