Circulating Chromebooks

Are there any MI public libraries with circulating laptops -- not just for in-house use? If you do, I have a few questions I'd like to run by you. Thanks, James James B Lenze, Library Director Garden City Public Library 31735 Maplewood St Garden City, MI 48135

Colleagues, Aside from a few requests for me to share the information I gleaned, all the responses to my question were on the order of "we do not currently circulate them". Several libraries indicated that they have applied for grants which will be used to begin this service. A few are coupling them with WiFi hotspots. Taylor Community Library purchased some chromebooks for a temporary socially distanced computer lab. They hope to repurpose them as circulating chromebooks once they are finished using them for the computer lab. Royal Oak is lending them (with a hotspot) for 2 weeks.
