Smart Lockers
NOTICE: New ID cards may not work with the Smart Locker. Please contact Circulation to ensure your account has been updated before you pick up your items.
Request your library books online and retrieve them from the UWinnipeg Library Smart Lockers. Please wait until you receive an email notification indicating your hold is ready; books will not be ready for pickup before the notification is sent.
You will need to either have your library card (UWinnipeg ID card) or know your barcode number to pick up your items. See Student Central for information on how to quickly and easily obtain your ID card.
Location & Hours
The Smart Lockers are located on the main floor of Centennial Hall, next to the escalators (east side), and can be accessed any time campus is open.
How to Use the Smart Lockers
A library card or barcode is necessary to retrieve items from the Smart Locker. If you have neither, use your UWinnipeg email address to contact circulation@uwinnipeg.ca and we will provide your barcode number.
