On Reserve
About the Reserves Collection
The Reserves Collection consists of materials professors have chosen to set aside on Reserve, ensuring that the materials are readily available for everyone to use. Many instructors use the Reserves system to specify certain items for the entire class to use. This system allows for many users to have equal access to required materials. These materials may be library books, personal items belonging to the professor, electronically scanned items, videos, homework problems, or sample exam questions and answers.
Faculty, please see our Faculty Reserves Collection Guidelines for more information.
