    Morgan/Ben, I am supportive of the idea of a web based bulletin board for available supplies and equipment.  I think it would be a great tool for units to use.   I do think the proposed site would need to explicitly state that all supplies and equipment are for University business use only and no private use is allowable.  I also believe such a website should require login credentials to ensure only University employees have access to and use the system.

    Perhaps our campus should have something like Freecycle for the campus?  People could post extra supplies and small equipment (non-inventory) that they no longer need, along with their contact info, and other people could browse for things.  It might be a boon for the less wealthy units that can't always afford all the stuff they'd like, and it would also keep stuff out of the landfill.  We send an awful lot of stuff (even furniture!) to the landfill because Surplus won't take it, even when it's in perfectly good shape. - per Ben McCall
