Staff, students and visitors can exchange their red or white University card for a new smartcard at roadshows running at various University locations from January to March.
Roadshows will be held at the following dates and locations and will typically run from 9.30am to 4.30pm. See the Smartcard web page for exact opening times:
Please remember to bring your existing card.
| Date | Location |
|---|---|
| 17-20 January | Main Library foyer |
| 23-27 January | Main Library foyer |
| 30 January - 3 February | Darwin/Swann foyer |
| 13-17 February | Main Library foyer |
| 20-23 February | Main Library foyer |
| 27 February - 2 March | Darwin/Swann foyer |
| March (dates tbc) | Little France and Western General Hospital |
More than half of the University’s staff, students and visitors have now replaced their card with the new smartcard.
The smartcard contains a microchip, which can be used for cashless catering and contactless door entry, where facilities exist, and speed lane access to the Main Library.
Existing access to services including library facilities, gym membership and building access permissions will automatically carry across to your new card.
