11 surprising things you can check out from a library

September 14, 2012
You can check out laptops, video cameras, iPads and more at locations all over campus.

We came across this post about interesting or unexpected things you can check out from a library – somewhere. The list includes everything from therapy dogs to toys!

Do libraries at UW-Madison check out any of this stuff? Unfortunately therapy dogs aren’t in our collection (although they hang out on campus during finals and #studystrong…).

BUT – as a UW-Madison student, you do have access to a fantastic collection of equipment, from video cameras to iPads, that can be checked out from the Libraries and other locations on campus. Visit DoIT’s Equipment Checkout page for details and locations.

For the iPhones users out there, there’s also a handy app available for download – so you can check in all there is check out from wherever you are.
