        A.   UCSB Policies Manual, Policy 1215, Establishing Charges for
             Learning Resources/Audio Visual Equipment Use and Rental.
   
   II.  POLICY:
   
        A.   Instructional Utilization:
   
             Faculty use of the services and equipment in direct support of
             registered departmental classwork instruction shall receive
             first priority consideration at no charge to the user.
   
             When making requests for Learning Resources work, the faculty
             member can obtain authorization to have the costs absorbed by
             Learning Resources when the materials are directly in support
             of the Instructional Program. Such authorization shall come
             from the Associate Director of Learning Resources. However, NO
             rush work can be accepted for classroom budget absorption by
             Learning Resources.
   
        B.   Non-lnstructional Use:
   
             When Learning Resources equipment such as audiotape recorders,
             projectors, etc., are needed for administrative and general
             institutional activities, grants for research, recognized
             extra-curricular activities such as publishing, nondepartmental
             instruction such as special seminars or lectures, off-campus
             organizations and other uses not directly associated with
             regularly scheduled teaching-learning activities as part of the
             curriculum, the equipment can be rented for a three-day period.
             If an operator is needed, the department involved shall pay for
             the operator labor cost of $3.00 per hour. See Attachment A for
             the current equipment rate schedule.
             
             For periods of longer than three days, permission must be
             obtained from the Associate Director of Learning Resources. A
             charge per day for usage up to and including a monthly charge
             will be made. (Please consult the charge-rate schedule in UCSB
             Procedure 1215 for equipment costs.)
             
             The policy for charges for Photographic RUSH orders is as
             follows:
   
             a.   There will be a charge of 50% of the RUSH order.
             
             b.   The minimum RUSH charge shall be $5.00 on all orders less
                  than $5.00, and a maximum RUSH charge of $15.00 on all
                  orders exceeding $30.00.
        
        C    Self-Supporting Organizations:
        
             University Extension and other agencies, either off campus or
             on, who derive their income independently from University funds
             will be charged a per day rate for each item of equipment (see
             Attachment A). If an operator is needed, $3.00 per hour will be
             charged for delivery, operator time, and return of the
             equipment.
   
        D.   Student Usage:
   
             Student groups, with the approval and signature of the
             Organizations Coordinating Board or the Dean of Students and
             Associated Students advisers, may borrow equipment for
             overnight use. They shall pick up the equipment before 4:30
