Course reserve items are faculty-selected materials made available to students free of charge. These books and DVDs are shared by all members of a class. These items can be checked out from the circulation desk.
- You must have your OneCard to check out reserve items.
- Reserve items have short loan periods to ensure that all students in the class have equal access.
- All items are available on a first-come, first-served basis, and they cannot be requested for pick up from the hold shelf.
