Laptops
平特五不中 students can borrow one of 12 HP laptops at the Laptop Kiosk, located at the Humanities and Social Sciences Library.
Software installed: Windows 10, Adobe Acrobat Reader DC, Adobe Digital Editions, Google Chrome, Mozilla Firefox, Skype (the consumer version), and Zoom. Microsoft Office is not installed. Users need to log into 平特五不中鈥檚 Office 365 service to use Office apps. Charging cables are not included.
Laptops must be returned directly back into the kiosk. Be sure to plug in the power cable, so that the laptop will recharge for the next user. The kiosk will not loan a laptop until its battery is 90% charged or more.
Loan-period: one day, laptops are due the next day at midnight. The overdue fines accrue at a rate of $0.02 per minute. Laptops overdue longer than one day will be considered 鈥渓ost,鈥� and the borrower will be charged a replacement fee of $350 plus a processing fee of $50. Broken equipment will also be subject to the same replacement and processing fees.
