Loaning a locker during the semester

Students at Södertörn University can loan lockers for storing study materials. Loans are per semester.

Where are the lockers?

Student lockers are located in the MA building on levels 3, 4 and 5 (MA3, MA4 och MA5) and are for temporary storage over one semester.

How do I loan a locker?

You must show a valid form of ID when you loan the locker. You must also sign a document with the terms and conditions of use, which is provided in Infocenter. Read the terms and conditions carefully before you sign, so you know what applies during the loan period.

The lockers are loaned out on a first-come, first-served basis. There are not enough lockers for all our students, so to have the best chance of getting one you should be quick.

Infocenter sets the start date for each semester’s loan period. This will usually be close to the start of the semester, but may vary. All lockers loans end automatically twice a year, at Christmas and at Midsummer. Students must empty their lockers before these dates.

Fees and lost locks

You will be charged SEK 350 if the lock associated with the locker disappears, so keep it safe during your loan period.

Cleaning out the locker at the end of the period

When the loan period ends, the lockers are emptied by staff. Any items left in the lockers at that time will be disposed of. Ensure that you empty your locker in good time, so your belongings are not removed.

These are the rules for locker loans at Södertörn University. The terms and conditions explain who may loan one, what items may be stored in it and your responsibilities during the loan period.

Who may loan a locker?

Only students who are registered for a course or study programme at Södertörn University are entitled to loan lockers. Lockers must not be loaned to anyone else, even if that person is currently studying at Södertörn University. The student is personally responsible for all contents of the locker throughout the loan period. Valid ID must be presented when signing for a loan.

Storage in the locker

The lockers are for the temporary storage of personal belongings that are necessary when studying, such as clothing, course literature, study materials, lunchboxes and bags. They should not be used to store valuables; no compensation will be paid for lost or damaged items. The student is responsible for emptying their locker when they finish their loan period or end their studies. The storage of alcohol, narcotics, weapons, illegal items, explosive or flammable goods, chemicals requiring a permit, or items with special storage requirements is prohibited.

Loan period

The loan is valid for the current semester. All loans end at Christmas and Midsummer in association with the cleaning periods.

Checks

Private locks may not be used on Södertörn University’s lockers. Private locks will be removed and disposed of without compensation. Campus and ICT Services perform regular random checks. In the event of unauthorised storage, the locker loan will be terminated and the student will lose the right to any future loans. Possession of illegal items will be reported to the police.

Cleaning and maintenance periods

The student is responsible for emptying their locker prior to cleaning periods. All contents found during cleaning periods will be disposed of without compensation.

Obligation to repay

The student is responsible for the lock throughout the entire loan period. The lock must be attached to the locker and may only be used at Södertörn University. If the lock is lost, the student will be charged SEK 350 and will lose the right to any future loans.

Consent to the processing of personal data

By signing, the student agrees that Södertörn University may process personal data, including their personal identification number, in accordance with the GDPR. The data are used solely for the purpose of administering the locker loan and are not stored for longer than necessary. The student has the right to request information, correction or deletion of data. The loan must be terminated in order for the data to be deleted.
