Course Reserves for Students

E-Reserves

COVID-19 UPDATE

Course reserves are currently all digital and therefore do not need to be checked out at the Circulation Desk. Please see your course site on Canvas for links to these e-reserves.

Course Reserves

Professors occasionally place articles, books, DVDs, CDs and other material on reserve for class use. These materials are available at the Circulation Desk.

  • On the Course Reserve page, browse for your course by instructor's last name, course ID or department.
  • Clicking on the course link will display the items on reserve for your course. The information in green indicates whether a copy is available and what to ask for at the circulation desk.
  • You can also use the search box, at the top of the course reserve page, to search by instructor name, course name, course ID, author, title or academic department.
  • Reserve materials have different loan periods and fines. If no one is waiting for the item, you can renew a reserve item once.
