Borrow a laptop

How to borrow a laptop from the library.

Short-term laptop loans

There are two laptop loan lockers on the first floor of the library from where you can borrow a laptop.

These loans are for eight hours and work only on campus, where you can connect to the University’s Eduroam Wi-Fi network. 

You will need to have your student card with you to borrow one of these laptops. 

Four-week laptop loan 

The library also offers laptops for a longer loan period of four weeks. These laptops can be taken off campus.

These can be requested by completing the following form: Request a 4-Week Long Term Laptop  [Login required]

Please note:

  • Four-week laptops are for student use only
  • Students are unable to directly renew a laptop at the end of the loan period
  • At the end of the loan period students are required to submit a new laptop request - a laptop cannot be held onto after the 4 week period is complete.
  • Due to high-demand, it is recommended that long-term laptops are used as a temporary measure and that students should source their own laptop provisions for longer periods of use.
