When multiple students are assigned readings or given the same topic to research, they may have difficulty obtaining high-demand materials. Course reserves provide limited borrowing periods or direct links to online resources.
Using the Course Reserve search these are easy to find by Title, Instructor name or Class

Thanks, and enjoy!
