Bookings


Bookings can be made using the locker terminal or Loan Portal and gives the ability for students to book 1 device or staff members to book multiple devices for a specific date and time.

Note - Staff booking multiple laptops, this does not mean they can Borrow more than 1, this will only try to ensure that the Booked amount is available for anyone to Borrow at the requested booking time.

When making a booking, the installation will attempt to hold the assets needed for the booking.

The devices booked, will then be made available to be borrowed at the selected date and time. This does not assign laptops to selected users/depts but only attempts to hold the requested number of laptops, so they are available for anyone to borrow at the requested time. 

Current loan types: -

  • 10 hour loans - On Campus only (open to Staff and Students) - Available at all locker locations
  • 7 day loans - On Campus and Off Campus (available to Students only) - Available at Level 3 Student Union Riverside Building only (currently)
