Faculty Course Reserves

Students are able to view a list of reserve items for their course on the Reserves List page. Instructors can specify if they will be able to check physical items out for 2 hours in-library, overnight, 3 days, or 1 week. E-books and streaming media can also be added to reserve lists for ease of access. Processing requests of reserve materials can take up to 48 hours.
