Requests for gaming consoles for use in Brantford and requests for the Oculus Rift, the gaming laptop or the projector should be directed to Michelle Goodridge.Who Can Use the Collection?Tabletop (board game) and digital games (discs) can be borrowed by the following users: students, staff and faculty on 28-day loan. Alumni and Community borrowers will have access but are limited to 21-days loan. The gaming consoles (eg. PS5, Nintendo Switch) will be available for 14-day loan and must be picked up and returned to the library circulation desk in Waterloo (not the book bins) when the library is open. These items will not be shipped to other campuses and are not available to Alumni and Community members. Faculty and staff can contact Michelle specifically if they need a console sent to another campus for arrangements. Users must check the items out before use, even if they plan to just use them in the library so we can review usage statistics and accountability. The gaming items have fines and fees for replacement that are different than regular items in the collection. The fine for a lost game is $125 similar to the lost book fine, however, the fine for a lost console (eg. PS5, Nintendo Switch) is $400.Game Collection – Code of Conduct and Acceptable Use GuidelinesThe game collection was established for the use of students, faculty and staff at Laurier for both educational and recreational purposes.
