Research Tip: Course Reserves

What are they? Where are they? 

Course Reserves are library materials that check out for two hours and can only be used within the library building. They are available at the Circulation Desk and you'll need your Monmouth College ID card to check out materials.

How can I find them? Does my professor have any course reserves?

You can find course reserves using the syllabus provided to you by your professors, or you can view the Searchable Course Reserves List in the Hewes Library Catalog. You can search by class, professor, or department.

Faculty: Don't Forget Course Reserves

If you are a MC faculty member and plan to place items on course reserve, remember that all of our course reserve information is available on our website along with the necessary forms.

Please allow 48 hours for processing. At times of high volume, especially at semester's beginning, processing may take longer. For this reason, we recommend that reserve forms be submitted well in advance of their anticipated date of first use.

Starting August 6, we will be accepting Course Reserves for the fall semester.  All course reserve information is available on our website along with the necessary forms.

The Process

Faculty, to place an item (library book, article, media, or personal item) on course reserve, complete a Hewes Library Reserve Form, available:

• download an electronic version
• through the Start Menu on any computer connected to the Monmouth College computer network: Start -- Programs -- Library -- Hewes Library Forms -- Library Reserve Form
• at the Circulation Desk

Hewes Library materials and your personal items can be placed on reserve. The library can not place I-Share items or items owned by other libraries or community businesses (for example, Family Video) on reserve due to copyright restrictions.

Please allow 48 hours for processing. At times of high volume, especially at semester's beginning, processing may take longer. For this reason, we recommend that reserve forms be submitted well in advance of their anticipated date of first use.
