Locker Service

The State Library offers visitors a secure and easy-to-use storage service for a small fee. There are designated lockers for people with a disability.

Where are the lockers located?

The lockers are in the cloakroom.

How much does a locker cost?

It costs $1 to rent a standard locker and $2 to rent a larger locker, for four hours. (A standard locker is big enough to hold a large backpack.)

How do I obtain a locker?

There are 12 electronic pay-points which accept coins and notes, and also give change. After paying, you are allocated a locker and issued with a printed ticket showing your secret six-digit locker access code.

Please note 
Remember to keep your ticket with you, as you will need your access code to open your locker.

Do I have to rent a locker every visit?

You only need to rent a locker if you're carrying a bag or other item that's larger than 30cm x 40cm x 10cm. Umbrellas can be left with the security guard in the foyer

For more details see the Library's Baggage Policy.

What happens if I have a problem with a locker?

The lockers are a managed service provided by Smarte Carte Australia for the State Library, and a customer service officer will be available daily.

Please refer any queries or problems to the customer service officer, or telephone the free-call 1800 number for help (public phones are provided). Library staff are unable to assist with locker queries.
