Reserves Policy
Please allow up to two weeks for the processing of reserves requests. Library staff will affix identifying stickers on materials before they are placed on the reserves shelf at the Circulation Desk in the library and will obtain permission to place copyrighted materials such as articles and copies of single book chapters on reserve.
Please note that instructors who wish to place many articles on reserve are encouraged to contact a department assistant or the bookstore to create course packs.
Reserves at Shoen Library
Instructors who are teaching courses on campus may request that materials be kept behind the Circulation Desk on reserve. Reserves can consist of almost any material belonging to the library with the exceptions of materials located in the Reference Collection or Periodicals Collection. Library staff can also place instructor and departmental copies on reserve. Instructors who teach the same course every term are eligible to place materials on reserve on an annual basis.
