The Saltire Centre to have lockers

As a student who travels from home to university I am constantly layering up and carrying a lot of things for my day. However, I do not always need books all at once but bring them to be able to study with in the library after class. Lockers in the library would enable people to keep unneccessary items such as scarves etc but also a range of books used for studying. Moreover, especially when studying in the library by myself I feel unwilling to leave any valuables at a desk (such as my laptop) to go get something to eat or if I'm gone for a while. With lockers you would be able to keep your valuables safe whilst not losing your place in the library floor, especially at this time of year when it can be hectic. Edinburgh university already has lockers in both the 1st and 5th floor of their library. They have academic lockers for the year which you can rent and 'daytime lockers' for everyday use. Although Glasgow Caledonian University has lockers these are not currently located in the library and also are limited on first come basis. More daytime lockers will enable short use for everyone who is just needing somewhere to keep their things whilst sutdying alone, and by placing these in the saltire centre this will enable students to study for longer.
