Course Reserves

Bapst Library Course Reserves

Books on reserve in the Bapst Library are shelved according to course.  Students can consult books for the entire course in the Bapst workroom.

Submitting Course Reserves

Please send reading lists, syllabi or updates to courses taught during the past year to the Bapst Daytime Services Coordinator. 

Timeframes

Because some items may need to be ordered, scanned, recalled, or repaired, it is helpful to receive syllabi as soon as possible so that students have access to their readings when assigned.  We are happy to accept additional requests once the semester begins.

Materials

Books

Only books from the Boston College Libraries collections can be placed on reserve, but we will gladly purchase any titles not in our collections.

Journal Articles/Book Chapters

Bapst staff will scan and provide online access to journal articles and book chapters. The portion that can be considered fair use varies and should be a limited amount tailored to the pedagogical purpose. A fair use portion would seldom exceed 2 chapters or 20%. When multiple chapters from a book are requested, the book itself will be placed on reserve.

Removal of Course Reserve Materials

Bapst staff will remove materials from course reserve at the end of each semester.

Additional Information
