Welcome to Preston Library's guide to Course Reserves!

NOTE:  Preston Library is offering digital/online course reserves only.

Use the tabs on the left-hand side to find information on:

• Digital Reserves (Links, PDF, DOC, PPT, & image files) that can be placed on our e-reserves page or embedded into your Canvas courses.

• Copyright Policies that outline and explain your legal obligations when considering whether or not to place items on reserve. 

Reach out to Beth Homicz, User Services Specialist & Reserves Manager, for assistance.

Physical course reserves will NOT be offered.

Physical reserves include books, magazines, dvds, microfiche/film, newspapers, and other physical materials.
