The Art History/Classics Library (AH/C) houses all reserves for History of Art and Classics graduate seminars and small undergraduate courses taught in seminar rooms 308B, 308C and 425.  Reserves may be checked out for a two-hour loan period: graduate students may take reserves out of the library; undergraduates must use them in AH/C.  Renewals are only allowed when another patron is not waiting for the title.  The AH/C Library does not loan its books to other units for reserve, however students may use the books on-site.

Guidelines for Faculty to Place Reserve Requests

Reserves for all History of Art and Classics courses NOT scheduled in seminar rooms 308B, 308C and 425, are handled through the Doe & Moffitt Library.

To place materials on course reserve in AH/C, please contact Trina Lopez tlopez@library.berkeley.edu, Circulation Supervisor, 308F Doe Library or fax them to 510-643-2185.

Deadlines for submitting reserves are as follows:

Fall Semester: June 21
Spring Semester: December 20

Note that lists received after these deadlines will be processed in the order received and will most likely not be available at the start of the semester, especially if they are checked out by another patron.  Additionally, if a requested book is not owned by the library or is missing, it can take up to one month or longer to obtain and prepare the item for reserve.

Reserve Lists (not to exceed 50 titles per course) should be submitted with the following information.  Please include Instructor’s Name and Course Number.

1.    Exact title
2.    Author
3.    Edition (if necessary)

All articles, photocopied materials, and personal books should be given to Trina Lopez to process and will be returned at the conclusion of the semester.
