Audiovisual Equipment

The Media Distribution and Support Center of Academic Technology has a vast Media Collection. However, all the media in the world is worthless if you don't have a way to use it, so AT also provides checkout service for a wide array of audiovisual equipment. Many of these can be used in conjunction with our media collection, such as media players and external speakers for amplified sound. However, we also provide a myriad of other pieces of audiovisual equipment for use in your classroom.

Reserving Equipment

Several pieces of Audiovisual equipment - Multimedia cart, laptop computer, overhead projector and CD player

While we are happy to check out our equipment to faculty, we do have a limited amount of equipment. Due to high use, AT requires advanced reservations be made for the following pieces of equipment:

  • Camcorders
  • Digital Still Cameras
  • DVD Players
  • VHS Cassette Players
  • DVD / VHS combination players
  • Laptop Computers
  • Multimedia Carts
  • TV and VCR
  • Video Data Projectors
All other equipment may be checked out without advanced reservation. However, if you want to guarantee the equipment is available, you may still make advanced reservations.

Checking out Equipment

Our equipment may be checked out by any faculty member for use in their class (or by a faculty member on a student's behalf — see Student Use page). There are several different ways to check out and pick up equipment from the Media Distribution center. Please consult the Checking out Equipment page for more information.
