How It Works
Anyone at UofSC can join the listserv and input their items to the pcxchg-l listserv as well as request for needed items. Types of items that will be posted on the listserv:
- computers
- software
- hardware
- other computer items
Any other items will NOT be sent or posted using this listserv.
Condition of Items
Please do not post any items that do not work to the listserv. Items that are no longer functional need to be turned into Consolidated Services at 925 Gadsden Street. For more information, call 803-777-3114.
Notifying Other Departments
If you just received new PCs and you have older working PCs, printers and/or monitors and software that need to be turned into Consolidated Services, please use the Listserv first to notify those departments that could use those needed items.
Use USC Inventory Form 7 [pdf] to record your transfer and be sure to complete the following information:
- Listing Item, Model, Manufacturer Serial Number, USC number, From Bldg Nr., Room Nr., To Bldg Nr. Room Nr., Reason, and condition of item(s)
- Each Form 7 will have the name, department number and fund account, of both the releasing
(top of form) and receiving department (bottom of form). A total of three copies of
the form will be needed, with one provided to each of the following:
- one copy to the releasing department
- one copy to the receiving department
- one copy to Consolidated Services (FAX 777-3149 or 777-9059).
Consolidated Services needs to know where all equipment is at all times for auditing purposes.
