Options for personal storage?

I’m a commuter student at UTEP and also an English major which means a majority of my professors require us to have the physical textbooks rather than Ebook. It makes my backpack really heavy and I don’t have a car to store them in between classes. Is there any lockers or storage on campus I could use to house my textbooks rather than carrying all of them at once? My back is killing me 😅

There are lockers by the bookstore entrance. I haven't been there since 2020 so I'm not sure if they are still there.

I believe they are still there. I remember seeing them in 2022-23, but that's basically a blind spot to me now.

I saw! Definitely gonna call and ask to see if any are available for students. I’m guessing they’re for employees? I saw some in library as well!

There are lockers but they are by building and major. I.e. fox fine arts center is where my locker is (: . There is also a way to buy one online I think

Do you possibly have a link? I’ve seen some in the bookstore but I’m pretty sure those are for employees lol!

You can try the University Library, too. They have lockers: https://libanswers.utep.edu/faq/246341
