Course Reserve Instructions

• Please submit your course reserves requests to the library as soon as possible to allow adequate time for processing.
• If you are teaching the same class as in a previous semester, and the reserves list will be similar to a previous list, submit a copy of that form in place of the standard reserve form.
• Make changes by marking the old list, and send it to Nga Tran, Sheldon Margen Public Health Library, 1 University Hall, #7360.
• If you have an assistant handling the preparation of your reserve lists, please give the copy of the previous list to her or him along with the following guidelines.

Lists are processed in the order they are received. Due to last-minute rushes, those arriving late may not be processed in time for students to have access to the material when they need it. If you have questions about course reserve policies, or if you have not received a copy of your previous reserve list from a class you will be repeating, please contact Nga Tran at ntran@library.berkeley.edu or 642-2511.

Thank you for your cooperation.

Guidelines

1. Please have lists typed on the reserve book list form, copies of which are available at the Public Health Library or http://www.lib.berkeley.edu/PUBL/reserveform.html. The citations should be as accurate as possible, and include author's name, title, and edition. If a desired book is owned by another branch and you wish to have it temporarily shelved here, please also include its call number and location. DO NOT CHECK OUT MATERIAL FROM OTHER LIBRARY BRANCHES TO PLACE ON RESERVE AT THE PUBLIC HEALTH LIBRARY. (This complicates the process and can result in fines from the owning unit.) Please try to limit lists to a maximum of twenty items, since there are many classes requiring reserves, but space to hold them and staff to process them are limited.

2. If a course had reserves in a previous semester and is being offered again by the same faculty member now, a copy of the previous list should have been mailed to you prior to the beginning of the semester. If the same material is to be requested this year, just send that list back to the Public Health Library having made notations of any needed changes. It is not necessary, in such a case, to send a reserve form. If the previous year's list was expected but not included, contact Nga Tran at the Public Health Library (2-2511).

3. Indicate a circulation period (2-hours or 1 day), and whether or not an item should be Library Use Only. If no preference is indicated, items will be given 2-hour circulation.

4. The Library does not put journals on reserve but accepts photocopies of articles instead. (Title 17, United States Code, governs the reproduction of copyrighted material. In accepting photocopies for reserve, the UC Berkeley Library assumes that the copy or copies have been made in compliance with the Fair Use Provisions of Section 107. For more information on UC copyright policies, please see http://www.universityofcalifornia.edu/copyright/.)

5. If photocopied articles are to placed on reserve, binding material must provided for them (i.e. binder or manila folder), and care should be taken that the copies are made with sufficient margin on the left or top to allow them to be attached to that binding and still be able to be read and/or photocopied by borrowers. The library does not provide binders or folders.

If you have questions about placing materials on course reserve or if you wish to check the status of your course reserve list, feel free to contact Nga Tran at ntran@library.berkeley.edu.
