Partner Campuses Loaner Pool

Broward Technology Services (BTS) and Northern Technology Services (NTS) have a small loaner pool of various technology items (including laptops, projectors, or digital cameras) that can be checked out by faculty or staff members of the Davie, Fort Lauderdale, Jupiter, and Dania Beach campuses.

Employees can borrow these items for a limited period of time. This is a free service for FAU faculty and staff of the FAU partner campuses. Equipment in the loaner pool is available on a first come, first serve basis.

All users must sign a loan agreement, and they are responsible for maintaining the equipment while in their possession.
