Placing Course Material on Reserve

Hawkeye faculty can place supplemental course materials at the Hawkeye Library Circulation Desk.

Loan periods are set by the requesting faculty using one of the reserve checkout periods: two hour in-library use, overnight, three day, one week, or two weeks.

Materials owned by the Library, such as books and videos, may be placed on reserve. Faculty may also place materials they own on reserve; however, the Library is not responsible for any loss or damage.

  2. Complete the Reserve Request form [pdf] to submit your request. Please submit the reserve request in a timely manner before announcing the assignment to your students.

  3. Allow 3 business days for us to process your request.

All requests are processed on a first come, first serve basis.
