Course Reserve requests and removal
Please submit one form per course.
When requesting items for additional courses, please fill out and submit another form.
All materials will be removed from course reserve after exams at the end of each term.
- If you require a different removal date, please indicate this in the 'Special instructions' field within the form.
- Please provide a ‘Contact name’ (Instructor or department Administrative Assistant) of the person who will pick up the instructor-owned material at the end of the semester, from the Library Services desk.
*The library can NOT place PDF/scanned documents onto course reserve*
Submission requirements for different materials
Library Copy: Both print and electronic copies of library materials can be placed on course reserve.
- If the print material is currently signed out of the library, please submit your form and we will Request/Recall this material on your behalf. Please allow time for a Recall (this could take a few weeks).
Instructor’s Copy: Instructors can submit their own material for course reserve.
- Barcodes and security tape will be attached to all non-library (personal) material for security and circulation purposes. Although a charge is attached to lost reserve items, the library cannot guarantee the replacement of materials that go missing from the reserve collection.
- Personal books and videos should be labelled in some way to indicate ownership.
-
Photocopies: The library DOES NOT photocopy articles or chapters for Reserves. Instructors must provide their own photocopied material.
All photocopies must be:
- In compliance with UNBC fair dealing guidelines, or covered under an existing library license, or cleared with the copyright holder. If you have any questions, please contact UNBC Copyright Services.
- Each article/chapter must be submitted in their own separate file folder, clearly labelled with the course name and number, instructor’s name, and title of the article/chapter.
- *Please ensure the title on the folder is the same as the title on the photocopied article/chapter in that folder and that the information corresponds to the course outline and Required Reading list*
Bring the material to the Library Services Desk after submitting the course reserve form.
