Live Library Occupancy

Something to remember during this busy final exam period: The Archer Library & Archives has live occupancy data available online via the Waitz app, which allows you to see what our building occupancy is at any given time. You can access this information on our website (using the “current library occupancy” link) or you can check the visual display unit in our front entrance on your way in.

For the impatient, the direct link is: https://waitz.io/regina

Waitz uses custom sensors that scan for radio signals (Bluetooth & WiFi) in an area. These sensors pick up laptops, cell phones, wearables, and other connected devices. The total signal activity is analyzed to estimate the number of people in the area.
