There are two smart-locker units:

• Adsetts Level 4
• Collegiate Library - on the ground floor beneath the stairs

You can access everything off campus you would usually be able to access on campus on a University PC.

How to borrow a laptop

• Swipe your SHUcard on the small screen
• A number will be displayed; press the button on the corresponding locker to open the door
• Unplug the laptop. You'll notice there are power cables for you to borrow too
• If you are taking the laptop off campus, make sure you login before you leave the library

Laptops count towards your loan limit of 20 items; you'll be able to see the laptop listed in My Library Account just as you do for books you've got on loan.

How to return a laptop

Laptops must be returned by midnight seven days after issue, regardless of what time you borrowed it. The service is available 24/7/365 to match the opening hours of the libraries. Extensions are not available.

• Laptops must be returned to the locker they were issued from
• Swipe your SHUcard on the small screen again
• The same locker door that you borrowed it from will open automatically
• The due date is displayed on My Library Account.
• Replace the power cables at the back, then plug the laptop in to recharge. Plugging it in 'returns' the item on My Library Account
