Faculty may place physical items (books, DVDs, etc.) as well as electronic items (articles, ebooks, book chapters, films) on reserve for their class each semester. Links will appear in the Library Resources and Course Reserves tab in Canvas. If you do not find a title on reserve, search the Library Catalog to see if it is available through our regular collection. Students needing accommodations should contact the Disabilities Services Office to obtain course materials in a format that is accessible.
We are implementing a new reading list and course reserves system, to be introduced this summer for Fall courses. This new system aids faculty in building reading lists, using content from both BC Libraries and non-library holdings from the web or uploaded files. Benefits include:
During the summer faculty may continue to use the current methods of submitting requests (see below); after that you will be redirected to our new Course Resources software in Canvas. Stay tuned!
Faculty should send us a list of readings or your syllabus well before the start of each semester. We will set aside print items, link to online items, and create a list that appears in your Canvas course.
