It's the middle row of numbers; don't worry about the other numbers/letters. This lock's serial, for example, is 57184697. 


In Oliver, returning the padlock will bring up who the lock was borrowed out to in Oliver, as well as the combination.

Open the Circulation Desk in Oliver, and make sure Returns is selected.
