What is Stored in the Stockrooms?
- Stockrooms house a variety of lab resources that fall into one of four categories:
- Disposables
- General Supplies that are reusable (e.g., glassware)
- Equipment that needed for limited time periods
- Chemicals
- No single stockroom has the capacity to house a complete inventory of all RNS lab supplies and equipment; therefore, most supplies and equipment are specific to a particular stockroom.
- Teaching and research labs typically contain the items that are necessary for work in that particular space. Such lab-specific items are not housed in the stockrooms.
- For a complete list of items found in a particular stockroom:
- Take some time and browse the shelves. It is good practice for you to become familiar with the stockrooms.
- There is an itemized inventory list located on the end of each shelving unit.
- Use the 3-Ring Inventory Binder to determine its proper location. These binders are sitting on the counter in each stockroom.
- Use the Quartzy database to determine an item’s location.
