FAQs about the Equipment Loans service

< 1 min read

What equipment can I borrow? #

This depends on the course you are on and whether you have received training.

How do I borrow, collect or return loans? #

See the detailed guide.

Can I extend a loan? #

This is considered on a case by case basis.

What happens if I break the equipment? #

Any loss/fault/damage must be reported immediately; Loans will then liaise with the borrower’s department/course to determine how to proceed from there. Unreported damage discovered by the Loans team may result in the borrower being billed directly. Non-return of equipment will be considered a loss and if not returned within 5 days, the borrower will be charged for their replacement.
