To check out a laptop, iPad or faculty/staff use equipment, you need a current HNU ID card (with a current-year sticker) and a completed borrower's form. You can fill out the form in advance, or when you come in.

Long-term laptop loans will be provided by HNU's Information Technology Department. Learn more about the Student Loaner Laptop Program.
Cushing Library has iPads, and a number of computer accessories and equipment for students, faculty and staff to check out. Click on the tabs for the complete list of items and the loan period for each item. You can also check and see if the item is available by clicking on the title link.
Some equipment items are only available for faculty or staff checkout. These items are listed as Faculty/Staff Use Only and require signing our Borrower's Liability Agreement form with the library. The lending agreement is also required to checkout a laptop or an iPad.
Please note, there is a 30 minute turnaround time between equipment checkouts. For example, if an equipment item is checked out, renewed up to the renewal allowance, and checked in, there is a 30 minute wait before the same item can be checked out again by the same person. This allows staff to verify that all returned equipment is in working order as well as provides access to equipment to all patrons.
