ERL - iPad Information
Apple iPad Checkout Information –
- Apple iPads may be checked out of the ERL during regular business hours of Monday – Friday, 8:00am-5:00pm ONLY, when regular staff members are present to assist patrons and answer any questions you may have about their use.
- When you check out one of our iPads, you accept full responsibility for their safe and timely return. If you cannot follow the terms, do not check out the equipment. If you violate the terms, you will lose the privilege of checking out equipment. You will also be responsible for replacement costs (up to $600 for an iPad/case/powercord). A hold may be placed on your Oakland University account (Registrar) until business is settled with the ERL.
- The iPad with its case and power cord must be returned in the same condition they were in when you checked them out. We will try to have the iPads charged, but be aware that you may have to plug them in if the battery drains.
- All equipment must be signed out by an ERL regular staff member and will be visually inspected on return and then synced with our iPad computer to remove any personal data and assure that it is working properly.
- Do not get water, beverages, dirt, or food on the iPad or components.
- Do not lend the iPad to anyone else as it is checked out only to you. All equipment must be in your immediate possession at all times. Do not leave items on tables, in a classroom or in your car.
- All iPads are checked out on a daily basis. If you borrow an iPad, you must return it before the ERL closes or make specific arrangements for when it will be returned and for its safe storage until it is returned. If you are ill or not coming to school on the day the equipment is to be returned, it is still your responsibility to get it back on time.
