#1 | Q: What is SPINAL? A: The SPINAL is a calendar system is used for instrument reservations and for charging usage fees. The core staff also uses SPINAL to post announcements about instrument status. Each instrument has its own rules about how far in advance you can make a reservation, the maximum sign-up time allowed, and how much notice you must give prior to cancelling. |
