Course Reserves are materials that have been selected by your professors and made available to you through the Library. Items acquired for courses are referred to as "Course Reserves" and can be checked out from the Service Desk.
Materials may include:
- One copy of most required textbooks
- Supplemental readings (articles, book chapters, etc.)
- Anatomy models
- Films
- Style Manuals
Items NOT on reserve:
- Recommend textbooks (unless requested by the instructor)
- Lab manuals or workbooks.
Checkout length:
- 2 hours for most materials; if the length is different, the library staff will let you know.
- Overnight checkouts are not allowed.
*Please return items on time to avoid overdue fines--the late fee is 50¢ per hour.
