Because I prefer studying in Wilson Library, my visits to the Undergraduate Library are infrequent and usually accompanied by an attempt to enter through the exit-only doors. Therefore, it wasn’t a surprise that I was unaware of the technology the Undergraduate Library has to offer.
A quick look through the Media Resource Center shows a variety of items available for checkout, including:
- HD video cameras
- microphones
- iPads
- Green screens
- projectors
- Wiis
High-quality video and media equipment can be an incredibly expensive investment for college students, and the UL does students a favor by offering the equipment for loans on a short-term basis. Borrowing the equipment is a great way to check out items you might want to buy, try out new technology, or gain access to materials for a class project.
Keep in mind that each item is only available on a two-day borrowing basis, with a $30 per-hour late fee.
