Lists are processed in order of receipt. Because of staffing levels and the current volume of reserves, we ask that you limit your lists to 40 titles. Processing time is reduced if we can work directly from the lists you submit. You can assist us in this by observing the guidelines outlined below. We are happy to use your personal copies of books or other items if you choose to place them on reserve. NOTE: Personal copies must circulate on two-hour reserve.
The copyright Law of the United States governs the making of photocopies or other reproductions of copyrighted material. In accepting photocopies for reserves The Library assumes that the copy or copies have been made in compliance with the fair use provisions of section 107. The reserve units of The Library will not make multiple copies for reserve.
Shelving space is provided for informal reserves. Informal reserves refers to materials faculty may wish to make easily and quickly available for their classes without going through the formal reserve process, e.g. photocopies or a reading assignment. The Library does not provide records or any maintenance of materials on these shelves. The undergraduate informal reserves shelves are located behind the Information Gateway on the third floor of Moffitt Library. The graduate informal reserves shelves are located in Graduate Services, 208 Doe Library.
Thank you for your cooperation.
Guidelines
- Author's complete name.
- Call number.
- Complete title.
- Loan periods: 2-hour or one-day. If no preference is indicated, items will be given 2-hour circulation.
- If photocopied articles are to be placed on reserve, care should be taken that all copies are made with a sufficient margin on the left or top. This allows them to be attached to binding and still be able to be read or photocopied by borrowers.
