<div>Hi Heather! </div>
<div>It's great that you got funding for this. <br>
</div>
<div>We've been loaning out Chromebooks for over a year now. <br>
</div>
<div><br>
</div>
<div>We have 12 total that patrons can check out and use in the library. <br>
</div>
<div>At this point there is no limit on how long they can have it checked out for.
<br>
</div>
<div>We average about 400 checkouts per month. <br>
</div>
<div>Once the Chromebook is returned, a staff member sanitizes it and then does a "powerwash" to reset it back to factory settings so that no personal information is kept from the previous user.
<br>
</div>
<div><br>
</div>
<div>I hope this helps! <br>
</div>

<div>I hope this helps. <br>

Our library received funding through the ECF to provide laptop lending. If you provide this program, please share your policies and procedures. Any advice or guidance (tips or problems you have encountered with laptop lending) would be greatly appreciated. </div>
