Faculty and staff can check out select equipment to assist with campus events, seminars, and courses. Please work with Mercer's local scheduling resources (Registrar or Campus Reservations) to ensure that the spaces you reserve have the equipment you need. If you are unable to find a space with the required equipment, IT can loan equipment to faculty for classes or other official Mercer events. If you are from an outside organization (not a Mercer-affiliated employee, student, or organization), review the University's policy on Audio Visual Equipment – Outside Events.
