Faculty Reserves Services

Reserve materials are those which supplement course curriculum. The library will place course materials on reserve for an entire semester. If you have a lengthy list of required readings, please consider a course-pack--consult the bookstore for assistance.

To request an item to be put on reserve, use the online Course Reserve and Film Booking Request Form. Estimated 3 day turn-around for materials to be available. Turn around time may be longer if materials are checked out or on order.

To find films in our catalog, use the Film Search.

If we don't own the item you would like placed on reserve, please complete New Book Purchasing Form or Film Purchasing Form.

 

Information on Reserves

Reserve items are kept behind the main circulation desk. The items are checked out for a shortened loan period to accommodate class assignments. The loan period is 4 hours for "in library use only".

"Overnight" loans may be requested to allow reserve materials to leave the library building two hours before closing and are due within the first hour the library reopens the next day. Course instructors can contact reserves@dickinson.edu.

For further information, e-mail reserves@dickinson.edu or call (717) 245-1397 and ask for the on-duty supervisor.
