Course Reserves for Students
What is Course Reserve?
Instructors place course readings, books, old exams, solutions manuals,
etc. on reserve to guarantee their availability to students. There are
two categories of library course reserve materials:
Electronic Reserves
Electronic Reserves (E-Reserves or E-Res) are course materials that
have been placed on the web so that students can use them at any time.
Items that are typically placed on E-Reserve are: journal articles,
chapters from books, tests.
On-Site Reserves
Materials owned by the libraries or personal copies provided by KU
instructors may be placed on reserve in one of the KU Libraries where
the items will be available for checkout. On-Site reserve items typically
include complete books, videos, and other relevant material to support
classroom instruction. On-Site reserve materials have shortened loan
periods ranging from two hours to two weeks.
Other Possibilities
KU faculty and instructors may choose to provide access to some or
all of their course materials through Blackboard. Consult your instructor
if you have questions.
