Equipment Room Procedures:

On Floor Checkouts:

NEW:

From now on, the ER will no longer supply certain items to students.
Required to be purchased by all Students needing them:
  • SD Cards - Class 6 SDHC (You must supply your own for use with the still cams, xactis, zoom recorders, ets)
  • AA Batteries (you must supply your own for zoom recorders, microphones, etc)
  • Card Readers (There are card readers on the production stations for general use with your own SD or Flash Cards)
  • USB A-B Cables (Students must provide their own USB A/B cables except for gallery projects)
Not required byt strongly recommended:
  • USB/Firewire Hard Drive (it's a good idea to get a drive for your backup purposes, transferring files on the floor or for showing work on the fly)
On floor checkouts involve borrowing equipment for use solely on the 4th floor of 721 Broadway - ITP. The borrowed equipment must be returned by the close of the day it was borrowed on. Any problems with the equipment must be brought to the attention of the Equipment Room Staff as soon as it has been identified.

Off Floor Checkouts:

You may borrow certain production equipment (digital still cameras, digital camcorders, microphones, tripods, etc) from ITP for use Off Floor. The equipment is checked out for a period of 24 hours from the time of the checkout. All equipment checked out must be returned within 24 hours or your privileges to borrow equipment of use the Lab resources at ITP will be suspended until speaking with the Technical Operations Manager.

If you wish to reserve special checkout equipment for approved classes or independent study or to request an extended checkout, submit a request to the helpdesk at itp.helpdesk@nyu.edu at least 1 week prior to the date the equipment is needed for.

When borrowing equipment from ITP you assume all responsibility for the equipment and are responsible for any damage due to neglect; or in the event of theft or loss of unattended equipment.

A list of equipment available to students for checkout via the Equipment Room is available here ER Inventory.
