Course Reserves

Materials that have been placed on reserve, either by faculty or because of frequent use, are found behind the circulation desk. The library maintains approximately 2,000+ items in the reserve room. Please ask the person at the circulation desk for materials needed from this area.

For best service, please provide the desk attendant with as much information about the item as possible -- including the correct title, author, and call number. You can obtain this information from the Library's online catalog, MERLIN.

MERLIN will also allow you to view reserve lists. This option allows you to search for materials placed on reserve by either the name of the course or the name of the professor. The reserve listing not only displays complete information about all items placed on reserve for a class, it also displays the current status of each item, including whether it is currently checked out, and what time it is due.

For more information about displaying reserve lists, see the MERLIN WebPac Guide.
