WHAT CAN GO ON RESERVES?
NEW BOOKS: If the library does not own a book that you wish to place on reserve, please use the Course Reserves Purchase Request Form.
PHOTOCOPIED ARTICLES: Processing time will be greatly reduced if one copy of an article is provided. The library will make one copy of articles for which complete citations are given: author, title, journal title, volume number, date and pagination. Please do not use an acronym in lieu of a journal title.
PERSONAL COPIES: Providing personal copies before classes start will allow sufficient time for processing. When the personal material does not accompany the list please indicate "to be supplied" on the form.
SOFTWARE: Multimedia Self-service machines are available in the Bass Library. Software may be placed on reserve; arrangements should be made in advance of assignment dates.
VIDEO/AUDIO TAPES: Tapes used in conjunction with course work may be placed on reserve. Please make arrangements in advance of assignment dates and confirm that the available players are compatible with the tapes.
