Placing Materials on Reserve in Graduate Services

Reserve lists should be submitted as soon as possible to Graduate Services since some items may need to be ordered or recalled.  The deadline for fall semester is July 15 and the deadline for spring is December 15.  Lists submitted after the deadline will be accepted, however, and will be processed in the order received.  Additional items may be added to your list anytime during the semester.

You may submit reserve lists in the following ways:
    web:      Fill out and submit the Course Reserve Request Form for Graduate Services
    email:    Email your list to grds@library.berkeley.edu
    fax:        Fax your list to 510-643-0315
    campus mail or in person:  Deliver your list to 208 Doe Library, MC#6000

Please provide complete book and journal citations, including the author's full name, title, publication information and edition for books, and journal title, volume numbers and dates for journals.  Include your department and course number, and specify a circulation period for the reserve materials (2-hour, 1-day, 7-days).  If you charge out Library materials intended for course reserves, please attach a note to the books when you deliver them with your name, department and course number, and preferred circulation period.  If you wish to change the circulation period on any item, because of heavy use or in the week of class discussion, please contact us.

PERSONAL COPIES
Your personal copies of books may also be put on 2-hour reserve and protected while the Library seeks to place orders for out of print or difficult to obtain materials.  You may also put the course reader or photocopied articles on reserve.  (Graduate Services cannot photocopy items for you.)  Personal books are returned to you at the end of the semester.  Photocopies and readers are not returned unless requested.
