EDC Access for Undergrad Students in the Winter 2024 Term Ended on April 26th

EDC access for undergraduate students enrolled in courses during the 2024 Winter Term has ended. Only students enrolled in Creative School courses that run in the Spring/Summer 2024 Term are eligible to use EDC equipment and facilities.

Picking Up & Returning Equipment

Checkouts are what reservations become after they are picked up. All reservations are to be picked up and returned to the EDC during operational hours (except for Keytracer reservations).

Patrons (students) must bring their OneCard when picking up a reservation. Only patrons listed on the allocation are allowed to pick. Lending out OneCards out is not permitted and the patron who made the reservation must be present to pick it up.

After a reservation has been checked out patrons will receive an automatic email confirmation to their Ryerson email. This email list the details of the allocation:

  • List all the items checked out
  • Pick-up time
  • Return time

Patrons must check the equipment before they leave the vicinity of the EDC to ensure that all equipment is accounted for and functions correctly. Report any missing, damage, or inoperable equipment to the EDC immediately.

Patrons should note their return time to avoid a late fine.

Be sure to return your items to the EDC on time. EDC Staff will process your return and you will receive a confirmation email once all items on your allocation have been returned. If you have multiple allocations (CK numbers), you will receive an email for each allocation.

If you do not receive a confirmation of return and start receiving late emails, please contact the EDC - do not let a fine increase.

It is your responsibility to know when the equipment and facilities checked out under your name are due, and to ensure they are returned on time. Late returns will be subject to a fine.

It is the patrons responsibility to make sure they received all items from their reservation before leaving the EDC.

We also recommend patrons make sure all equipment is in working order before leaving the EDC. While the EDC regularly inspects the equipment, during times of high volume this is not always possible. Best practice is to check your gear before patrons go too far.

Gear and inventory checks should be completed in the hall outside the EDC.
