Did your professor say something about Course Reserves?

Did your professor say something about Course Reserves? Find out what that means here! Course Reserves are course-related materials made available, either electronically or physically, through the UMBC Library. Items that may be on reserve for a class include: books, videos, textbooks, articles, and book chapters. While an item is on course reserve its loan period is shortened, usually to three hours, so that it can be accessed by a greater number of students throughout the semester.

You can check whether your professor has put anything on reserve by going to https://library.umbc.edu/reserves/.

Note: The library does not normally purchase textbooks. Many of our reserves are personal copies provided by generous faculty members! Others are purchased at the request of faculty members. ]]>
