How do I put materials on reserve for my course?
Course Reserves are print and media resources that instructors request to be set aside at the Library Information Desk for student use throughout the duration of a course.
Answer
Instructors are welcome to place reserves on personal or library-owned materials. Please complete the Course Reserve Request Form online or bring the material to the Library Information Desk and we will be happy to assist you.
Please allow at least two working days for reserve items to be available for borrowing.
Formats:
- Reserves from the Library collection: all books from the Library collection can be placed on reserve.
- Reserves from your personal collection: faculty are also permitted to place materials from their personal collection on reserve.
- Books that are the property of the instructor are requested to be in good condition in order to be placed on reserve.
- DVDs on reserve: DVDs from the Library's collection may be placed on Reserve.
- Faculty is responsible for verifying that the correct title and version of the video corresponds to the students' required viewing list.
- DVDs placed on reserve will be only available for viewing while in the Library.
- Portable DVD players are available for borrowing from the Library's Information Desk if a computer with a DVD player is unavailable.
- Photocopied material: It is the responsibility of faculty to ensure all photocopied material placed on reserve complies with Canadian copyright law.
