Print Reserves

Guidelines

Faculty members’ personal copies

• Faculty members may place personal copies of textbooks required for their courses on Print Reserves
• Personal copies are subject to library policy and will be given Reserves labels and Reserves call numbers, which will be affixed to the material.
• Loss or damage to personal copies is not the responsibility of the Reserve Services Unit.
• Personal copies will be returned once the listed items are taken off of Reserves.

Textbook Purchases

The library purchases some required textbooks based on faculty recommendations:

• Print textbooks purchased through this program will be put on two-hour reserve at the Circulation Desk for student use in the library.
• We also purchase eBooks, but only those with library-licenses allowing for unlimited users.
• We may not be able to acquire every textbook requested.
• Submit your request using the Textbook Purchase Recommendation Form
• Please see our Free, Open, and Affordable Materials LibGuide for further information

Materials not eligible for Print Reserves

• Books lent by other universities or libraries via interlibrary loan
• Course packets
• Consumables (such as workbooks, which are intended for one-time use)
