Course Reserve Policy: Faculty Information
What is Course Reserve?
The main purpose of the Course Reserve section is to ensure equal access to high-demand materials by limiting the loan period for those items. It also collects in one place all of those items faculty members wish for students to have access to throughout a particular course. Click here to view the EAC Library Course Reserve list.
Who may place items on Course Reserve?
Eastern Arizona College faculty may place items on reserve for any of the courses they are teaching. It is up to faculty members to inform library staff of items they want to be placed on reserve before the beginning of each semester. Course Reserve items will remain on reserve for the semester(s) indicated or for a maximum of two years. Faculty who have placed personal items on reserve will be notified by email when their items are ready to be picked up.
What types of items may be placed on Course Reserve?
Library books, journal articles, DVDs, videos, CDs, and photocopied articles, chapters, or essays may be placed on Course Reserve. Faculty may also place their own personal items on reserve. Items from the Reference Collection will not be placed on reserve.

Items may be placed on Course Reserve for lending periods of “library use only," (4 hours) or 3 days.
