Laptop Checkout

Laptops can be checked out for 4 weeks by currently enrolled COM students pursuing degrees or certificates without any current library 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. 
• Late laptops are considered lost, preventing students from registering for classes in addition to being charged a replacement fee of $360 if not returned (includes laptop and charger). 
• Students with late laptops risk losing laptop privileges for the remainder of the semester.
• 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.  
• Follow the COM Acceptable Use Policy (PDF).

1. Go to the library Circulation Desk.
2. Present your COM ID at time of checkout.
3. Read and sign the laptop agreement.
4. Sign in for laptop set up.  
5. Take your laptop home!
