Requesting media equipment

You can make requests via Jumbosearch up to 2 weeks in advance. When making a request online, you decide when to pick up and return your equipment but reservation length cannot exceed 7 days. Kits will not be available until 10am the day of pickup. Once the kit leaves the library, the borrower is responsible for all items listed on the contents tag.

Making a request

 1. Select the Request button under the image of the equipment on the left. You will be directed to the record for that kit in Jumbosearch.

Cancel a request

To cancel a request, please visit the Circulation Desk at Tisch, call at 617-627-3347 or email TischDDS@tufts.edu with the words Media Equipment in the subject. We strongly encourage patrons to cancel when no longer needing a reservation. This opens up the equipment to community members more quickly than letting the reservation expire without notifying Tisch library staff.  

Return

Equipment must be returned to a staff member at the Tisch Library Circulation Desk at the designated return time and patrons must be present for the entire check-in process. Equipment borrower assumes full responsibility for damage, loss or theft.
