Laptops
For added convenience, Polk Library has laptops available for checkout to students. Bring your TitanCard and ask for them at the Circulation Desk.
They check out for 3 hours at a time and must be used inside the library. Because they are such a popular item, overdue fees will accumulate at the rate of 5 cents per minute, so be sure to return them on time to avoid fees (we'll tell you exactly what time they are due when you check them out).
This license allows you to download and install Microsoft Office 365 ProPlus (Word, Excel, PowerPoint, Outlook, OneNote, Access, Skype for Business) on up to five computers (Windows or macOS). More information about Office 365 ProPlus and how to download it are available at the UW-IT UWare site. The Libraries' public computer equipment is provided to enable library users to access the collections and other information resources and services in support of curriculum and research needs. The following rules apply to use of computers within the Libraries and supplement and interpret University-wide policies on use of computing resources.
