To look up a reserve, click on the “Course Reserves” link on the Library’s web page. Follow the instructions on the resulting webpage to search for course reserve materials by either instructor name, course code, course name, or reserve item title or author.

Find the item you want, write down the call number, and bring it to the appropriate desk.
