University of Iowa Transfers
UI departments wishing to directly support our linkages with
African universities may transfer surplus equipment to The WiderNet
Project for use in our partner institutions. These transfers of
equipment contribute to building the digital technology capacity of
our colleagues and their institutions in Africa. They also
further the educational mission of The University of Iowa and may be
included in the UI cost sharing when we seek external grants.
The process works like this:
| 1. |
See the previous
Donations Web page to make sure that we can use
your donation. You can call 335-2200, if necessary. |
| 2. |
Call UI Surplus at 335-5001 to arrange a pick-up, because UI Surplus
is responsible for UI security, especially wiping hard
drives. When arranging the pick-up, you need to specify
that some or all of the materials are for The WiderNet
Project. |
| 3. |
Affix one label to each of the items (or boxes)
that are for The WiderNet Project and attach a note with a
list of the items with the other information for UI Surplus.
To assist you, we created labels using Avery Standard 5160
Address Stickers. Click here for
PDF or here for
DOC. |
| 4. |
Finally, please fill out a
Donations form and either e-mail it to us at
librarian@widernet.org or send it to us at 201 CC
through campus mail. Thanks! |
