Student Equipment Checkout Update – Barbara Tuck created drafts of documents and met with library people who will handle the checkout. A few of the concerns that CTC would need to work out are:

-Who and how would batteries get charged.

-Need cabinet to lock up equipment.

-Library personnel unable to assess damage to items –Library personel would receive flack from students if equipment did not work correctly.

-Service agreements would be needed for items .

-Contracts may be needed for equipment use.

-No way to restrict checkout to only students in a particular class section.

-How would the equipment get to the library.

The library has been very supportive of getting this project implemented from the beginning. Barbara Tuck had done an incredible amount of work in identifying and working out potential issues that might arise. The committee decided that the efforts necessary by the library would be greater than the estimated benefits by such a program. CTC decided to table this project to avoid overburdening the library. Individual colleges and departments or individual faculty having equipment to check out could handle it in their own areas.

Possible security issue – submitted by Paul Harwood: When faculty lock their computer terminal    (Cntl/Alt/Del), both the faculty member’s name, and their N# show up.  Is this a security concern?
Issue referred to Jeff Durfee in ITS. Jeff said it works as designed and he will find out if there is a security issue.
