If you wish to use a piece of equipment not listed as certification required (example: the photo light box) it means this equipment can be reserved without completing a certification course.
If a patron attempts to reserve a piece of Innovation Lab equipment prior to completing the related certification course, the reservation will be denied. Register for certification courses if you have not done so already.
