When can I lend something from the BMS Lab or make use of its services?

Lending is subject to the regulations and conditions laid out on our terms and conditions page and our conditions for lending document. Making use of any of the facilities, equipment, software or services is only possible after a project has been registered at BMS Lab. Approval of the project is needed before lending can commence. Read more about this on our special registration page.

Borrowing a "ReMarkable tablet" or "Streaming Kit" for use during your study is exempt from the requirement to register a project (read more).

If you'd like to make use of our development or data storage or processing services, then read more on the respective pages.
