About

Course Reserves are materials set aside by instructors for use in coursework, such as textbooks, articles, and videos, available for short-term borrowing. Students can access these resources at our circulation desk or online.

Faculty can request to place items on reserve by filling out our Reserves Request Form.

Checkout at the Circulation Desk

Please have the Course ID or Course Instructor Name ready to ask for the material at the Circulation Desk on the 1st floor

 

Loan Period

Materials on Reserve are available for short periods. These loan periods allow more students to have access to the materials:

  • Items placed on 2-hour Reserve loans may be checked out for In-Library use only.
  • Items placed on 3-day or 7-day Reserve loans may be checked out and used outside of the Library.

 

Graphing calculators are available for 3-day Reserves loans.  Additionally, a selection of online graphing calculators are listed on the Library's Mathematics Research Guide page.

 

Late fees

The CUNY policy for late fines for Reserve materials is $6.00 per hour for all Reserve loans (capped at $100)
