Welcome to the Lost and Found, managed by the Office of Campus Sustainability! Our aim is to reunite belongings with their owners, thus reducing the need to purchase new items.
Please complete this form to submit a description of your lost item. We will contact you if an item comes in matching your description. You can also check the Lost and Found Facebook page to see if your item has been catalogued and posted.
To reclaim your item, check our hours of operation and visit us in person. Be sure to bring an ID card. You will need to describe your item and specify the approximate time and place it was lost.
Please take lost items to Room 02A of the University Centre. You can place them in the 24/7 accessible office drop box. Please identify the item along with when and where it was found. Our staff will take steps to contact the owner.
Items found at Roger-Guindon Hall or Lees Campus should be sent to the Protection Office inside each building, from which the items will be sent to our Lost and Found Office.
We hold items for two months from the date they are catalogued by our clerks. After those two months are up, the items are donated.
The types of items we keep include books, clothing, keys, electronic accessories, sporting equipment, etc. We do not accept food or health/hygienic items. Laptops, phones, and other valuable items are brought to Protection Services.
If you have lost your uOttawa card, you can check with us or the uOttawa Card Service.
