Fair Use

The CHS IT Services reserves the right to shorten the borrowing period if the activity requiring borrowed equipment is less than one-week.

  • Emergency replacement of faculty/staff desktop systems being serviced

Exceptions can be made for any additional use by utilizing the same approval process that is required to extend the one-week borrowing period.
