RESERVE LIST REQUEST FORM INSTRUCTIONS
(For use by Brock Faculty Only)

• ABOUT THE RESERVE COLLECTION (PDF format)
  The Reserve Collection is designed to make heavily used materials available to as many students as possible on a short-term loan. To place a (new or additional) title on Reserve, you need to complete a Reserve List Request Form. It is not necessary to submit a new list for articles left on Reserve from a previous session.

• COPYRIGHT
  All photocopied materials must be supplied to the Reserve Desk for processing. Please ensure that the material placed on Reserve fall within the guidelines of the Access Copyright Licensing Agreement (PDF format).

• TIME REQUIRED TO FILL REQUESTS
  Material is processed in order of receipt. To enable us to have material processed and available for your students, please submit your Reserve Request lists at least two weeks in advance.

• ELECTRONIC RESERVES
  Whenever the full-text of required article readings is available through a library database, access will be provided through the Reserve Course listings in the Library's online catalogue, and we will provide you with the appropriate link to add to WebCT. PLEASE NOTE: IF YOU DO NOT USE THE LINK PROVIDED BY THE LIBRARY, STUDENTS WILL NOT BE ABLE TO ACCESS THE ARTICLE REMOTELY.
  
  Since not all articles are available electronically, please supply the Reserve Desk with the necessary number of paper copies. We will do the rest. For those items not available in digital format, our library is open over 90 hours per week, providing students with excellent access to all course reserve material.

• PHOTOCOPIES OF JOURNAL ARTICLES FOR RESERVE
  Periodicals are not placed in the Reserve Collection, but the Library may process specific articles on Reserve. Contact Library Copying and Printing Services at ext. 3263 for information regarding obtaining copies of articles from journals in the James A. Gibson Library. Please be sure to indicate on the Reserve Request List Form that the article should be forwarded to the Reserve Desk from the Library Copying and Printing Services Office.

• PERSONAL COPIES OF JOURNAL ARTICLES
  When the Library does not have the required material, you may place personal copies on Reserve. Submit the number of copies, along with a completed Reserve List Request Form. Articles must have the author (if applicable) and title field filled in as you would like the item to be listed under your course reserve list. If you know that a journal article is available electronically, indicate the source, either on the article itself, or on the Reserve List Request Form. Please note that the Library will not accept responsibility for personal materials in the event of damage or loss.

• LIBRARY BOOKS
  Library books placed in the Reserve Collection must always have a new Reserve Request List Form filled out at the beginning of each session. All library books placed on Reserve must have a call number, author and title filled out on the Reserve Request List Form. Please include the edition and number of copies with the call number, and any books that are currently on order.

• ORDERING BOOKS FOR RESERVE
  To order a book for the Library, submit a separate order to the Acquisitions Department via the New Acquisitions Request Form. Since ordering new material can take time, please order well in advance of the beginning of term. Indicate "RUSH for Reserve" and the course number on the order. Note on the Reserve List Request Form that the book is "on order".
