Faculty may place materials on reserve to support classroom instruction. Reserves can include supplemental reading materials for classes, textbooks, DVDs, and equipment. The library can place Miami University Library books or faculty’s personal materials on reserve.
We are unable to put OhioLINK materials on reserve.
Requests to have materials placed on reserve can be made at the circulation desk. Loan periods for these items are designated by the instructor, and may be one of the following: 2-hour/library use only, 1-day, or 3-day. In order to allow sufficient time for processing and to ensure that your students have access to the materials when needed, please allow 3 days between submitting items and anticipating availability.
Please note that all faculty must fill out a Reserves Request form each school year that reserves are active.
Items will be withdrawn from the reserve list at the end of the semester or year and returned to the owner, if applicable. A new form must be filled out for the materials if they are used again the next academic year.
For questions, please contact Dana Carlsen at mille854@miamioh.edu or 513-785-3179.
While the library is no longer able to provide Electronic Reserves service, we can assist you in finding licensed content (articles, e-book chapters, films, etc.) that you can link to in your Canvas course site.
