About Library Loaner Laptops
|
Library loaner laptops at Bluegrass Community and Technology College (BCTC) are free to check out, and are loaned on a first-come, first-serve basis. We currently have around 450 laptops in circulation. Often times, there is a waitlist for library loaner laptops because we run out. If you are on the waitlist, please feel free to call at any time to see where you are on the waitlist. When a laptop is returned, or is available, we past it on as soon as we can and will call and email you when it is ready.
You must meet the following requirements to check out a laptop:
- You are an actively enrolled student in the current semester who is...
- living in the Commonwealth of Kentucky.
- in good standing with the BCTC Library. This means you do not have any unpaid damages and you don't have late items.
OR
- You are an adjunct faculty member teaching a class for the current semester who is...
- living in the Commonwealth of Kentucky.
- in good standing with the BCTC Library. This means you do not have any unpaid damages and you don't have late items.

Library loaner laptops also have the Respondus Lockdown Browser installed.
If you have trouble using any of these applications, or if any of these applications asks for an "administrator login", please submit a ticket to IT Helpdesk or visit your IT's office at your campus. The device likely needs to be updated.
