Checking in to your organic lab locker.

On your check-in day of lab, you will check the contents of your assigned locker against a check-in list to be sure everything on the list is present and unbroken. Missing and broken items will be replaced from a store of equipment in your lab section. Your TA will be able to direct you to the location.

The easiest way to check equipment is to go through the list from top to bottom, removing each item and placing it in order on the benchtop as you go along. All extra equipment should be removed and placed into the plastic "extra equipment" bin located in the lab. Once the drawer is emptied, it can be removed if necessary and shaken out into the trash to remove any junk left behind. You will keep the locker key for the semester. An external lock will not be necessary.

Much of the equipment will be new to you. To help you identify the equipment, pictures are given at the following links. It is not necessary to print out the check-in list. An official copy will be provided on check-in day. It is shown here just to give you an idea of what to expect. It will be useful to print out the photos below and have them on hand to make check-in happen more quickly.
