Reserves

Definition:
Reserve materials are items that circulate for limited periods of time at the request of faculty/staff. These materials may be part of the Library collection or personal items. Reserve items are located at the Access Services Desk. A validated Student ID card must be presented at the desk when reserve materials are being used.

Circulation periods vary: Most materials may NOT  leave the Library (Closed Reserve). A few may circulate (Open Reserve) for one (1) day, 3 days, one (1) week or two (2) weeks.

Faculty wishing to put materials on reserve must bring those items to the circulation desk, along with:     

  1. Course Reserve Submission Form (for each reserve list)
  2. Course Syllabis

For more information see Course Reserve Policy or contact Nancy Fletcher

Types of Reserve Material:

Reserve categories are:
  CLOSED: Materials on closed reserve are for library use only.
  OPEN: Items on open reserve may leave the library for a period determined by the faculty/staff  member. (i.e. one day, 3 days, 1 week, 2 weeks)

Prior Notice:
It takes time to process materials into reserve status, so please submit your materials at least 3 days prior to student use. Reserve shelving is limited, therefore library staff will strictly limit the number of copies of one title that is placed on reserve. If you have any questions, call Nancy Fletcher, extension 595; or John Young, extension 657.

Interactive Television Courses:
ITV courses offered through UMPI are taped and placed on reserve for at least one month. VCR monitors are available on the ground floor of the library for those who wish to view these tapes.
