Select equipment is available as part of the UCBA Reserve collection and for check-out by UCBA students only.

Borrowing Policies during COVID-19

- The Library reserves the right to suspend service to anyone who abuses equipment or is unresponsive to instructions on how to return the equipment at the end of the loan period.
