The Reserve collection consists of material that instructors set aside for their students as a supplement to their class lectures. The items in this collection may be borrowed for short periods of time only – either 2 hours or one day. To locate a reserve item, search the library catalogue under the instructor’s name, course code, or course name.

To locate an item that an instructor has placed on reserve in the library:

• Search the Library catalogue by clicking on "Reserve Desk"
• Enter  the instructor's last name, course code, or course name in the search box
• Note the call number that has been assigned to the item
• Ask for the item by its call number at the 2nd floor Library desk
• Present your photo I.D. card to the staff

For Faculty

The library offers a special reserve service to faculty. If there is material (your own or library items) that you would like your students to access in order to supplement your class lectures:

• Bring it to the Library's 2nd floor desk (if the items are in the library's collection, supply the titles to staff and these items will be pulled for reserve)
• Fill out a Reserve Request Form

The staff will place these items into the Reserve Collection and students can search for them in the library catalogue under your name, the course code, or your course name.
