Library Reserve Guide for Faculty

 

SUBMISSION GUIDELINES:

To place materials on reserve, kindly submit your reserve lists with the syllabus to the appropriate librarian as soon as possible. (See Contacts below.)  Wherever feasible, reserve items will be placed on electronic reserve, E-RES.  Other reserve items will be held at the library Reserve Desks.  Reserve lists will be processed on a first-come first-served basis.

Please note that items not owned by the libraries will have to be ordered and processed, so you will need to allow 4-6 weeks to ensure that the items will be available to your students in time for their assignments.

Copyright - Copyright restrictions may prevent us from putting some material on E-RES. Such material will be held at the Reserve Desk.

What to include with your syllabus or reading list: 

• your name 
• the e-mail address to which we should send the E-RES password 
• course name and number 
• complete and accurate bibliographic citations for the reserve materials - This will expedite their appearance on the E-RES course page or at the Reserve Desk. 
• the dates or order of the reading assignments - This will enable us to prioritize and help ensure that students will have the readings in time. 
• If you know that a particular item is online, please send us that information along with the source or the link if possible. 

Email your completed submission to:

ACCESS TO E-RES:

A password will be assigned for your E-RES course page and e-mailed to you. Please tell students the password on the first day of class.

The E-RES course page will be removed from the online system two weeks following the end of the semester. If students completing the coursework will require access beyond that time period, please contact eres@yu.edu.
