Guide to Services for Faculty

  • Course Reserves: There are two methods for placing library items on reserve:
    • Retrieve the items from the shelves yourself and use one of the reserve request forms available at the Circulation Desk.
    • Use the Course Reserve forms available online and the library staff will retrieve the items, make copies if necessary, and place the items on reserve.
  • Interlibrary Loan Services: During the fall and spring semesters, returnable items will be delivered directly to faculty offices, or they may be picked up at the Circulation Desk. Copies of articles are typically delivered as PDF attachments to an e-mail.
  • Library Liaisons: Each School has been assigned a liaison librarian to assist the faculty by providing library instruction for classes, ordering library materials, and to provide research assistance as needed. Get to know your liaison:
