To make a reservation:

1. Find the item you want
2. Click on "Borrow/reserve"

4. Select your start and end dates on the calendar (maximum length is 14 days). The calendar will auto-fill the return date at 14 days, if you don't need it for that long then click on the return date to select a different day. If the item isn't available on your chosen dates, look under the item name to see if there are similar items.

7. Click "OK" on the popup (there is no payment necessary)
8. You'll get an email with details confirming your registration.

If you reserve a kit that you no longer need, please click on "My account" (top of page), then "Loans", then select the reservation, and click "Cancel reservation".
