Course Reserve

Course Reserve is best used when you are uncertain of the exact title of the item a lecturer has asked you to read, or when you want a list of all the items for a particular course.

The drop down menu boxes allow you to choose from the following categories: (see using drop-down boxes)

Lecturer
Either the course coordinator or the lecturer who requested that the item be put on Reserve
School
The school or centre in which the course is taught
Course
The course code and course title - look at your reading list or handouts if you are unsure
Session
The session this item is placed into Course Reserve. The item may also be on permanent Course Reserve if required for the full year.

Select from as many boxes as you wish; however only one selection can be made per box.

If your search finds nothing, retry using fewer choices. For example if you filled in both Course and Session, do the search again with only a Subject code selected.

Tips:

  • Course Reserve search ignores all Limits

  • Course is usually the most helpful box to choose.
     
  • When you display the list of titles,
    • Journal articles may be available in full text if the call number is online article. You will be able to view the full text by selecting Linked Resources.
    • Chapters from books or entire books may also be available if the call number is digital object. You will be able to view the full text by selecting Linked Resources.
    • Books will also be displayed and will be physically located in the course reserve area behind Client Services Desk on the ground floor.
       
  • There will be some items on your reading list that are not found by a Course Reserve search. You will need to search for these items using either the Simple or Guided search options.
