Reserve Materials Policy Dayton Memorial Library Reserve Materials Policy Books, articles, government documents, videotapes, audio recordings, electronic media, and other materials intended for use by all students in a class may be placed on reserve at the library. This policy document outlines and highlights faculty responsibilities as well as the limitations imposed by the CARL reserve system and by copyright guidelines for reserve materials.
Forms are available from the circulation desk.
Materials cannot be made available to students without a fully-completed form. A minimum of 24 hours processing time is required to make new reserve items supplied by faculty members available to students. Faculty members are encouraged to submit complete reserve lists at the beginning of each academic session and to refrain from adding materials during the session if possible. If materials are to be added on a regular basis, faculty members should note this on the instruction form so that we may package the materials appropriately. Students will have the best chance of finding materials if they know the instructor's first and last name, course name, and course number.
