Vending Machines

The food/drink vending machines are in the alcove just outside the lobby. Go through the first set of glass doors as if you are leaving Carrier. Before you get to the second set of glass doors, turn to the right, to the alcove behind the elevator shaft. The vending machines are along one wall in this alcove. There is also a new drink vending machine set into the alcove beside Starbucks, just outside of the restrooms.

The vending machine that sells office supplies is located next to the DART machine by the Public Services Desk.

Lockers

The lockers are in the alcove just outside the lobby. Go through the first set of glass doors as if you are leaving Carrier. Before you get to the second set of glass doors, turn to the right, to the alcove behind the elevator shaft. The lockers run along the wall of the alcove across from the entrance.

• To use a locker, find one that is unlocked and place your items inside. There are direction sheets detailing use inside each locker, but a combination of 1-13 numbers of the user’s choosing is required for locking the items inside. Choose the combination, close the locker, and input the chosen digits followed by the # key. You will hear the locker lock shut.
• To re-open the locker, input the same chosen code exactly and press the # key again. The light will go green and the locker should open up for you.
  
• Lockers are a useful solution for students who need a temporary, safe place to put checked out library materials, personal laptops, etc. since the Public Services Desk does not hold these items for people.
