General Borrowing Guidelines

  • All laptops and equipment are available first come, first served and may not be placed on hold. 
  • Items must be returned to the location where they were originally checked out. 
  • Library patrons are responsible for returning items in the same condition they check them out and may be charged a damage or replacement fee. 
  • Please bring your UNT Dallas ID with you to check out a laptop. 
  • Students must be enrolled in the current semester.
  • Laptops can be borrowed for 4hours, 24 hours, or 7 days.
    • Additional lending periods will be assessed on a case-by-case basis by the office of student affairs.
  • Borrowers are responsible for the equipment during the loan period and may be liable for any damages. If a laptop is not returned, it will be considered lost and the borrower will be liable for a replacement fee ($1200 for the laptop, $20 for the charger). A registration hold will also be placed on the borrower's Bursar account until the laptop is returned or the fee is paid.
