Faculty may submit requests for materials to be placed on reserve by filling out the online request form below. Please contact the Circulation Desk for additional information, or email libraryreserve@citytech.cuny.edu.

Policies for placing materials on reserve

    1. Check the Library’s catalog to determine whether the Library owns a copy of the title you are requesting.

    2. Please submit your request as soon as possible, but a minimum of two weeks is required to allow for processing. Note that it will take considerably longer if the Library does not already own the material. The Library cannot commit to purchasing all requested materials due to budgetary constraints, but will make its best efforts to fulfill requests.

    3. Materials are removed from reserve at the end of each semester unless you indicate otherwise. Instructors are responsible for retrieving personal materials no longer on reserve.

    4. Where materials do not fall within fair use, they may still be placed on reserve provided the faculty member has received permission from the copyright holder. If permission has not been secured, see the e-reserves webpage under “copyright permissions” for guidance. Note that seeking and obtaining permissions may entail significant costs in fees and take considerable time. These costs must be covered by the faculty member. Note also that the City Tech library may limit the number of photocopied items on reserve based on copyright constraints, etc.

    5. Reserve materials may be borrowed from the circulation desk to be used in the library for two-hour periods.

WARNING CONCERNING COPYRIGHT RESTRICTIONS:

The copyright law of the United States (Title 17, United States Code) governs the making of photocopies or other reproductions of copyrighted materials. Under certain conditions specified in the law, libraries and archives are authorized to furnish a photocopy or other reproduction. One of these specified conditions is that the photocopy or reproduction is not to be "used for any purpose other than private study, scholarship, or research." If a user makes a request for, or later uses, a photocopy or reproduction for purposes in excess of "fair use," that user may be liable for copyright infringement. This institution reserves the right to refuse to accept a copying order if, in its judgment, fulfillment of the order would involve violation of copyright law.
