Narrative
Florida Atlantic University Libraries is seeking to acquire twelve Macbook Air loaner laptops, an addition that promises to enrich the academic landscape here at FAU. The inspiration behind this proposal lies in our commitment to offering students like you the very best tools for your educational journey.
Imagine having at your disposal these sleek Macbooks, known for their unparalleled capabilities. The need for these high-performance Macbooks has been particularly evident in the Engineering iOS Development course (COT 5930). In this dynamic program, innovation knows no bounds, and these Macbooks are your gateway to unlocking the full potential of Apple's iOS development tools, including the renowned XCode.
But here's the exciting twist – when the Engineering wizards aren't conjuring magic with these Macbooks, they're up for grabs by any adventurous soul among you.

It's your opportunity to elevate your studies and make the most of your time at FAU, where the future of learning is in your hands.
