Course Reserves for Faculty

During Peak periods, it may take 2 weeks for print materials to be added to the course reserve collection. 
Use our Step by Step instructions for placing items on reserve.

Submit a Course Reserve Request Form.  Bring your materials to the library Service Counter and tell staff they are for placement on reserve.

Textbooks issued with restrictions such as instructor Edition or Instructor Review Copy cannot be placed on reserve. The work was provided free of charge solely for evaluation or pedagogical reasons.  For more information, see Copyright & You.

You can permanently link to specific articles in the library's research databases from your course web page and from the Library's Course Reserve Collection.

There are two options:

1. Let the Library do it for you! Use our Link. Scan. Open. Service
   We'll provide the link for you to use in your Moodle site. 
2. Manage the Link Yourself
   You can create own links to the articles in our research databases. The process for doing this varies between databases. How to create a link for various databases is in Moodle & Library Resources.

PDFs can be placed on e-reserve in special circumstances, but Linking to library resources is preferred. If you have a circumstance requiring an e-reserve, please note the details in the “Additional Instructions” field in the Course reserves request form.

The material must be copyright free or copyright cleared.  For example:

• You are the author/creator including class & lecture notes, sample tests, etc.
• Copyright permission has been obtained from the author/creator.

Note: if you just need a portion of an book put on reserve, consider our Link. Scan. Open. Service.
