In the past, professors have used items such as videos, microfilms, maps, etc. We will make arrangements with you to facilitate student use of such items. Please note that personal items will be security tagged and barcoded to better ensure their safety. Also, please understand that theft or mutilation of materials by users is always a possibility, and that the Reserve staff and Thomas Cooper Library are not responsible for such an event. We do not permit these items to be unstapled or to leave the building, thus ensuring the highest degree of safety for these high-use items.
Binders are acceptable.
If you so choose, we can have journal articles copied for you as long as you supply us with complete citations and provided that we own the source journals. Please note that searching for the journals and copying them takes a good deal of time, and we need at least three working days in which to accomplish this at the beginning of the semester. We also must observe copyright restrictions concerning the placement of photocopies on reserve. As with personal items, photocopied articles are security tagged and labeled to prevent theft or loss. This, however, is not a guarantee against theft or mutilation by users for which the library is not accountable.
