Reserves

  • The library course reserve system is a

convenient way for faculty to make additional course materials available to their students.

  • Types of “on reserve” items include

books, supplemental readings, class notes, sample exams, and DVD’s.

  • Most items check out for two hours

and cannot be taken out of the library.

  • For distance-education classes, the

same book may need to be placed on reserve at all campuses
