Equipment checkout guidelines

All checkout equipment is provided:

Chromebooks

• Chromebooks may be checked out for general use for 24 hours.  
• If you have a computer in for repair with ITSS, you may check out a Chromebook for the duration of your repair.  
• Chromebooks are managed by ITSS for security, which means you will not be able to install apps or save files to the device.
• If the Chromebook is not returned on time, it will be remotely locked by ITSS.

Chromebook Carts (a rolling cart with 30 managed Chromebooks)

• Chromebook Carts are available for campus groups such as orientation, training, or classwork.
• You may bring the Chromebook Cart to your own space on campus but it may not be taken off campus.
• If reserved overnight, the Chromebook Cart must be stored in a secure location.  
• Upon return, all Chromebooks must be replaced in the slots and plugged into chargers.
• Reservations are required and can be made by emailing itsshelp@d.umn.edu.
