Portable chargers can be borrowed from the self-serve kiosk in the Elizabeth Dafoe Library in four easy steps:

- Read and agree to the terms.
- Swipe your UM student ID card.

Chargers are available for four hours per loan. Overdue fines will be applied to a student’s account if the charger is not returned within the four-hour period or by the library’s closing time, whichever comes first.
Returning the charger
Returning the portable charger is even easier – only one step.
