Member Shelves
Active vetted Protospace members can have a personal shelf where they can store their own materials and supplies.
Unfortunately there are only ~230 shelves for 500+ members, so not everyone can have one. Shelves are claimed on a first-come, first-served basis as they become available.
How to claim an empty shelf
- Be an active, vetted Protospace member current on your dues
- Find an empty shelf without a name label
- Verify the shelf doesn't have an owner on the Portal > Space > Storage list
- Label the shelf with your name and contact info
- Claim the shelf here: https://my.protospace.ca/claimshelf
Tip: You can filter for empty shelves on the Portal > Space > Storage page.
How to take over an expired shelf
Shelves can be taken over 90 days after their owner's membership has expired.
If the shelf isn't empty, you must contact the Directors so they can return the previous owner's property.
- Be an active, vetted Protospace member current on your dues
- Find a shelf belonging to an expired Protospace member
- Open the specific shelf's page from the Portal > Space > Storage list
- If it says "Shelf can be taken over now.", click the link and claim the shelf
- Remove the previous owner's name and contact info
- Label the shelf with your name and contact info
- If the shelf isn't empty, leave the items there and contact the Directors. They will help you coordinate returning the previous owner's property to them.
Tip: You can filter for expired shelves on the Portal > Space > Storage page. The list will be sorted by longest expired first.
