Faculty Information

Putting items on reserve for student use

You can place books (library owned or your own personal copy), articles, videos, or other items on reserve for use by your students. Items are normally placed on reserve for 2 hour library use only. Students can search for Reserves by your name or course number. However, you do have the option to choose a different loan time. Print out and complete a Reserve Request form for each item you want to place on reserve. Please contact Collette Knight for more information.
