VIU Gear Closet

The Gear Closet is a collection of fieldwork clothing that current VIU students can borrow. These items are available on a "first-come, first-served" basis. 

Bring your VIU card to the Library Service Desk to check out gear for up to 7 days. Before you return borrowed gear, clean it thoroughly. Return clean gear to the Library Service Desk during open hours.
