About Course Reserves
Course reserves are materials that instructors have set aside in the library for specific classes and assignments. Reserves come in two forms - physical or electronic - and may be located one of two ways.
Physical course reserves (i.e., books, print materials, DVDs) have a call number and are listed in the Libraries' catalog. To locate them, search by the course number or instructor's name.
The catalog will indicate which library is holding the materials for your course. Go to the appropriate library's checkout desk to request an item on reserve.
