Faculty may place
high-demand library materials or special items such as personal books
and copies of articles from outside sources to use as supplementary
resources for their students on “reserve”.
We offer two types of “Reserve”.
Electronic
Reserves
Reprints (journal articles, book chapters, course readings and other
works with less than 30 pages) provided by the instructor. These
items are electronically scanned in pdf format and accessed via the
web. Electronic Reserves allow students to access readings from home.
Regular Reserves
Faculty may place books (personal or belonging to the library),
journal articles, book chapters, other miscellaneous outside readings,
or other items on reserve for their students to access for a specified
length of time.
These “Reserve” items are located at the Plaza
Circulation counter, and are available to students to check out.
Media
Reserves
Faculty may also place personal
or department-owned copies of legally-acquired tapes on reserve in the
Library. The Library adheres strictly to current copyright law
governing videotape copying, distribution and use. Faculty
may also request that videotapes and other media materials, currently in
the library Media Collection, be placed on course reserve.
These “Reserve” items are also located at the Plaza
Circulation counter, and are available to students to check out.
