MATC Libraries’ limited supply of Chromebooks and Hotspots available for semester-long checkout are all due on 5/20/2024. Overdue late fees and replacement charges will be applied if devices are not returned by the due date, and all devices will automatically be deactivated. Renewals aren’t an option as all equipment must be serviced and updated before they are available for checkout again. Please return them to the Libraries' Circulation Desk and NOT in an outside drop box as this may cause damage.
Checkout for the Summer Semester will begin on the first day of school, 6/10/2024. Devices will be available on a first come first serve basis, while supplies last. Please call ahead for availability, and fill out the Library Equipment Agreement Form prior to pick up.
- A Stormer Pass/MATC ID or other valid photo ID is required for checkout.
- Checkouts are for one semester only and must be returned by the end of the semester.
- Devices may not be renewed and must be returned for maintenance.
- The charging cord will be checked out separately from the Chromebooks.
- No holds may be placed on the devices.
For information about hotspots, see our Hotspot FAQ.
