Laptop Checkout

Laptops can be checked out for the semester by currently enrolled COM students pursuing degrees or certificates, due at the end of the semester and must not have any holds, fines or overdue items.

• Laptops check out for 4 weeks and MUST be returned by the due date. Students will have the opportunity to check out the returned laptop, if needed.
• Students with overdue laptops risk losing laptop privileges for the remainder of the semester.
• Long overdue laptops are considered lost, preventing students from registering for classes in addition to being charged a replacement fee of $340 if not returned. 
• If the laptop is stolen while you have it checked out, you must notify library staff at the Circulation Desk immediately and file a theft report with the COM Campus Police.

1. Go to the library Circulation Desk.
