Equipment purchases #76

Open Aariq opened 3 weeks ago

Aariq commented 3 weeks ago

What chapter/section?

New section, maybe in Onboarding or crossreferenced there.

What it says now:

In the onboarding section it just says "if you need anything else, just ask"

What it should say:

I'd like to know what the policies/procedures are on buying equipment for a home office. E.g. I would like to buy a better laptop stand that clamps to my desk and frees up some desk space—is that something I just need to buy on my own? Is there a way to get discounts on office equipment through the university? Is this something to discuss with Kristina because it needs to be approved on a case-by-case basis? Or what about things that are more necessary like external hard drives for backups. Also, how often should our work computers be replaced?

It would be useful to have more clarity on what equipment is covered. I'll talk with Matt about this during our next meeting.
