School own laptops and faculty accountability

I am looking for information relating to policies and guidelines from
schools who purchase and provide laptops to faculty. How do you handle:

1. Personal Information - Ownership/copy-write
2. Issues and policy related to loss or damage of the equipment
outside of school, particularly how you hold faculty accountable and
in what way(s)
3. Administrative Access to the machines - do you allow it
4. Back-up and recovery policies

I am sure there are many other things to consider and anything you
might think to add or include would be appreciated.

Thanks,

Bill
