Electronic Reserves

Copyright guidelines adopted by libraries apply especially to photocopied materials, restricting the number, kind, and length of time photocopies are kept on reserve. See our decision tree to determine whether to place electronic materials on reserves or link directly in Blackboard.

When submitting photocopied materials to be placed on reserves, fill out a Copyright Compliance Certification.

For more information regarding "Fair Use" and "Agreement on Guidelines for Classroom Copying," see the UST Copyright site. 

Books

Books from the UST Libraries can be placed on reserve. You may also place on reserves a personal copy or send a purchase request through your library liaison to acquire an item we do not own (Plan well ahead as acquiring a book takes time). Books from other schools cannot ordinarily be put on reserve.

Personal materials will be returned to the instructor at the end of the semester, unless other arrangements have been made.
