Attention Members - please be advised that Prism’s operations will be closed from April 25, 2025 to May 12, 2025 and no transactions will be possible during this time. 

Welcome Prism members!

Prism was established in 1991 as Providing Resources for Information Systems Management. We are a student-run program of Lazaridis School of Business and Economics, providing services and support to Laurier students under three pillars: Equipment rentals, Training Courses and optimal Study Spaces.

Our mission is to ‘bridge the gap’ between technology and students by providing resources that enable our members to excel, both during their time at Laurier and beyond. 

Exam Rental Policy:  
During the exam period (April 9 – April 27), only the following items will be available for rental: 

1. Laptops (Dell and MacBook) 
2. iPads 
3. Chargers 
4. Calculators 

Members interested in renting any of the above equipment are required to email a screenshot of their exam schedule to support@prismresources.ca before proceeding with the rental. 

All rented items must be returned within 24 hours after your last exam. Returns can be made either at the desk during our operating hours (10:00 AM to 2:00 PM) or through our return lockers. If using lockers, please ensure the equipment is securely locked and take a photo of it being placed inside and send an email to the support inbox. 

Important: 
All other equipment must be returned by April 4, 2025, to avoid late fees. To accommodate this, the due date for any currently rented items will be updated to April 4. 

For any questions or concerns, feel free to contact us at support@prismresources.ca. 

Rental Returns:

All equipment must be returned by the due date specified on your order. Overdue equipment will incur late fines of $5 per calendar day, as per the Prism Terms and Conditions. If you are unable to return equipment by April 4, 2025 at 2:00 PM, please email support@prismresources.ca to coordinate your return.
