For Instructors


Course reserves are physical items (such as books or AV materials) that instructors can use to enhance their course. Faculty who would like to place materials on reserve may do so by bringing their personal materials or Gregg-Graniteville Library materials to the circulation desk.

Course Reserve Eligibility

  • A reserves form must be filled out and signed by instructor before items can be placed on reserve.
  • Before adding an item to reserve, it must be reviewed for Fair Use in order to avoid copyright infringement. Read about copyright at USCA.
  • The library is not responsible for lost, damaged, or stolen personal materials.

Loan Periods

Materials put on reserve can check out to students for different periods of time. The options are:

  • Library Use Only
  • 1 Hour
  • 1 Day
  • 2 Days
  • 1 Week
  • 2 Weeks

E-Reserves

Faculty who would like to place materials on e-reserve may do so by bringing their personal materials or use Gregg-Graniteville Library materials to the Circulation Desk.

Please fill out the Call Number section of the form, if using Gregg-Graniteville Library materials. This ensures the Gregg-Graniteville Library materials can be processed.

Prior to adding an item to e-reserves, it must be reviewed for Fair Use to avoid copyright infringement. Read more about copyright at USCA.

A Faculty Reserves Form must be filled out for each item. Items can only remain on e-reserve for one semester (i.e., for each semester you'd like an item to be on reserve, you must fill out a new form). Please complete and sign one of the forms below to request materials for e-reserve.

Items that may be placed on e-reserve include book chapters and journal articles.
