Purpose
The Reserve Service is designed to provide assistance to faculty and students by gathering reserve materials in one location for student use and ensuring that every student in the class has equal access to the assigned material.

Procedure for Placing Materials on Reserve
Please evaluate materials and decide if they are providing the curriculum support intended by this service. If so,

• • Check all print items thoroughly for missing papers and pages
  • Check all audio, video, and software items to make sure that they are in good working order
  • Complete the reserve form using Adobe Acrobat Reader
  • Return the form and the items to the Greenblatt Library

There are general time guidelines for the placement of items on Reserve. These include:

• • A maximum contiguous time period of one year
  • A limited period of time (one quarter, for example)
  • A minimum of one week is needed to process the items once received by the Library

Note: During peak periods, such as the beginning of each quarter, items should be received by the Library at least two weeks in advance of the desired availability date
