Equipment Lending Library

Borrow, Create, Inspire

The Equipment Lending Library (ELL) is your one-stop shop for free microphones, speakers, mixers, amps, cables, photo and video equipment.

All students (undergrad, co-term, and graduate) and postdocs can reserve and check-out equipment during the academic year.

ELL is operated by Stanford Arts.

How It Works
