UCLA Library provides Course Reserves Service
The Biomedical Library supports education and instruction by offering a Course Reserves service. Instructors can place a wide variety of materials on reserve such as articles, lecture notes, exams, problem sets, books, chapters, and other personal materials needed for instruction.
Convenient & Accessible
When possible, materials are uploaded to the web so that students can access content from any location at any time. In addition, books that are held at our Circulation Desk for course reserve circulate for two hours. These items can also circulate overnight if checked out within the last hour that the library is open. If a title is not available in the collection we will do our best to purchase a copy.
Fast & Friendly
We pride ourselves on providing an efficient and user friendly service. Course reserve request can be emailed directly and are processed within three days. However, this turn-around time may be extended during the first week of school or if materials must be ordered. Although it is never too early to submit a request for course reserve, please do not hesitate to make requests throughout the quarter/term. In addition, feel free to send us just a list of citations or titles and let us do the rest for you.
Ask & Receive
If you feel you or your fellow students would benefit by having course materials on reserve, please let your instructor know about the services we provide as they may not be aware of all the library can do for them and you. Please let us know if you have any questions about access to online materials from home, or if we can be of further assistance.
