Q:
Can I order on-line or send in an order by mail?
A:
No. The LASSP Stockroom is a self-service facility. You can check out the catalog on-line, but you need to come down and make your purchases in person. We'd love to see you!
Q:
How do I make a purchase?
A:
Most stock withdrawals may be entered using one of the two terminals. If a hard copy receipt is required a printer is attached to one of the terminals.
Cash purchases can only be made during regular stockroom hours. All non-Cornell business related expenses include the Cornell Indirect Cost rate plus tax.
More detailed instructions are available from the stockroom staff
Q:
How may I suggest a new item that I would like to see carried in the stockroom?
A:
Either mention it to the stockroom staff or write it on the white board near the stockroom entrance.
Q:
What if I don't find what I'm looking for?
A:
Please check with the staff at the counter, as not all stock is displayed or readily available. The precious metals are kept in a restricted and locked area.
Q:
What if I need more than what's in the stock bin?
A:
Please ask at the counter as more stock may be available in the overflow area.
Also if you take the last or nearly last item from the bin please write the code on the whiteboard.
Q:
Do you have MSDS sheets for items stocked?
A:
Yes we do. It is located in a notebook behind the counter. Please ask at the counter for assistance if you require a MSDS sheet.
Q:
Will I be able to make an on-line shopping list?
A:
For the initial release, our priority was to get the catalog on-line so you can see what the stockroom carries and easily search for an item. In a future release we intend to add a 'shopping list' function to make it easy to mark the items you'd like and print them out before coming down.
Q:
What browsers is the stockroom website built for?
A:
This website is optimized for Internet Explorer 5.x or later, Mozilla 1.1 or later and Netscape 6.0 or later. It should work fine under Netscape 4.x, but probably won't look at its best. Should you find any problems, please report them to the webmaster.
