Access Course Reserves Readings
Get Reserves Through Interlibrary Loan
As you begin the semester, check your course syllabi to make sure that you can access the readings for all of your classes. Many of them will rely on textbooks and digitized readings available through Canvas. However, some professors may also have placed physical print items on reserve at the library.
To maintain everyone's safety, Monroe Library is not currently lending items that circulate widely under normal conditions. Instead, we are distributing those items digitally. To have an item on physical reserve sent to you digitally, just order it through our interlibrary loan system (ILLiad) using the instructions below.
If you're not sure whether your professor has placed any print (non-digitized) readings on reserve, in the library catalog by looking under their last name or the course name. (BTW: Professors like it when you remember their names!)
