Frequently Asked Questions
Any OLA member in good standing may request items from the OLA Technology Lending Library. OLA members may choose to request a technology loan for their libraries or for themselves. The number of items that may be borrowed and loan periods may differ depending on the type of loan.
All borrowers are asked to complete an exit survey after participating in this lending opportunity.

OLA will cover the shipping cost of sending the library items (one way only) to the borrower. The OLA will ship to the borrower via our preferred carrier.
The borrower is responsible for return shipping costs, and must ship using a method that includes a tracking number. Since OLA’s office is not currently open to the public, we’re unable to offer direct pick-up/drop-off.
Items will ship from, and be tracked by, the OLA office.
