    From the Librarians:
        Students- Chromebook hardware repairs and larger issues are to be completed at a self-service station in the library.  You will be messaged when your device is returned to pick it up and return your loaner device during your lunch time.
        For Google password resets or software issues requiring a power wash you can email or canvas message the librarians with your student id, device serial number which starts with 5CD and the issue.
        IT recommends checking for updates and restarting your device at least once a week to make sure it works well.  This also fixes lots of issues with printing.  For message like Canvas or Google is blocked your account must be removed on the log in screen of the Chromebook and then sign in again.
