The Reserve Collection consists of a variety of materials that professors and the library have chosen to set aside on reserve, ensuring that the materials are readily available for everyone to use. Reserve materials are usually in high demand. Professors have assigned them for an entire class to use, or the library has put them aside because of their popular or sensitive nature.

Materials on Reserve

  • library items: books, audio/visual media
  • personal items belonging to the professor: photocopied articles, homework problems, sample exam questions and answers, audio/visual media material, PDF's and other electronic files

Permanent Reserve items 

The library also has Permanent Reserve items. These materials are in high demand or are sensitive in nature. A few popular journals are on reserve and are listed below.
