Course Reserves

Course Reserves are items requested by faculty and instructors to be made available for short-term lending from the library for their students to use. Items may include library-owned or instructor-owned materials.

How do I place material on Reserve? Accordion Closed

Fill out the Request Course Materials form. An electronic version of the course syllabus may also be submitted but is not required. The materials are then located, labeled, and placed in the physical Reserve Collection or electronic versions are sent to you via a stbale URL to add to your course shell.

Does the library own your item electronically?  Simply copy the permalink from our catalog and paste it into your course shell”

Due to copyright laws, electronic materials are not allowed to be used in perpetuity; rather they should be evaluated, modified and or replaced as necessary.  Each semester, please use the request Form to ask for materials to be turned back on by the Reserves staff.

What can I place on Reserve? Accordion Closed

Physical Reserve material may include books owned by the library or your personal copies, kits, study guides, and media.

Electronic copies, and digital materials such as audio and video, will be sent to you as a stable URL link which you may add to your course shell.  We do not advocate for any Library-owned electronic material to be uploaded to BBLearn as a PDF.  Instead, please use the permanent links provided in our databases.  Need help? Please visit our easy Libguide for more information.

Are there items that cannot be placed on Physical Reserve? Accordion Closed

We do not place periodicals, reference books, microforms, or Interlibrary Loans on reserve.

Linking to Cline Library Online Resources Accordion Closed

Cline Library owns thousands of online journals, ebooks and databases. We strongly recommend using permalinks instead of uploading articles, ebooks, etc. to BBlearn or file sharing because:

  • Permalinks ensure that you are not in violation of copyright law.
  • Permalinked articles from Cline’s online collections are within Disability Services guidelines.
  • Permalinks allow the library to maintain accurate usage statistics, which ensures that we continue to purchase and renew the resources you need.

For more information about linking to library resources please visit our LibGuide.
