Borrower’s Responsibilities and Liabilities

I understand and agree that I am responsible for proper handling and use of the device(s).

I am responsible for returning all components to Pennsylvania’s Assistive Technology Lending Library in a timely manner and in accordance with delivery instructions. If I find that any components listed on the inventory sheet are missing when I open the shipping case, I must call the Assistive Technology Resource Center for my region immediately so I will not be held financially liable for the missing components.

In the case of loss of a device or components, I will be held financially liable. In the event of loss, I will contact the Assistive Technology Resource Center in my region immediately.

The total replacement value of the item(s) I want to borrow is listed in the catalog plus the cost of the shipping case, if applicable.

In the case of theft, I will not be held responsible, as long as I immediately report the incident to the police and provide a copy of the police report to the Institute on Disabilities at Temple University.

If an equipment breakage or malfunction occurs, I must immediately notify the Assistive Technology Resource Center for my region. I will not be held responsible for equipment breakage or malfunction that occurs during normal use as long as I report it promptly.

If there is a change in the pick up address, I will notify the Assistive Technology Resource Center prior to the scheduled pick up date.

I understand it is illegal to copy or distribute any software loaned through Pennsylvania’s Assistive Technology Lending Library. Upon completion of the loan period, if I have loaded borrowed software on my computer, I will remove it.

Failure to comply with these responsibilities will result in loss of future access to Pennsylvania’s Assistive Technology Lending Library, in addition to applicable financial liability.
