  5. Obtaining Supplies • On your first day at the lab, a plastic box for storage of labwear, name-badges, and materials will be issued by NanoLab staff. • Common supplies and materials (wafers, beakers, tweezers, etc.) are available in the NanoLab office and stockroom. • The item(s) must be checked out and are charged to your account. • If you need special materials or chemicals that are not kept in stock, a variety of catalogs are available in the office from which you can order the item(s) you require. • NanoLab office staff often can provide you with catalogs and vendor contact information, but such orders must be processed through your own department and not the NanoLab. Supplies purchased in the NanoLab storeroom are intended for NanoLab use only. • BNLA: Please do not “drop ship” orders to NanoLab. May get delayed/diverted • Office hours are Monday - Friday, 8:00 AM - 12:00 PM and 1:00 - 5:00 PM.
