Does the library have my textbook?

Can I find required reading for my course in the library?

Answer

Maybe! The library has some textbooks and other course materials on reserve.

If you're not sure if the library has your textbook, search for the title of your textbook or the ISBN in OneSearch to see if it's available as an ebook or in the library.

You can specify a search for course reserves by selecting the Course Reserves link under Focus Your Search.

You can search for course reserves by book title, professor name, or course details. 

Check that it's available, then make a note of the call number (e.g. RES 9860) and ask for it at the Information/Checkout desk on the main floor of the library near the entrance. Course reserves are available to borrow for a limited loan period (usually 2 or 4 hours).
