Requesting Observer Access for a Guest

If you wish to bring a guest into the lab more than once or twice, you will need to request observer access for them. LNF will issue an access card and name tags for the observer. Still, the guest must never be alone in the lab and should not operate tools. Observers will be charged the entry fee only, and the daily fee will be waived. If you only need to enter the lab once or twice, the visitor status may be more appropriate: see Requesting Visitor Access. If you are unsure about what you need, please ask us, we'll be happy to help!
