About Reserves

Instructors may request that books, articles, DVDS or other items be placed on Reserve for a course to ensure all students in a class have access to a required text.

  • These items are held in the Reserve section in the staff area.
  • Items can be requested and checked out at the Help Desk on the main floor (3rd floor) of the library.
  • The items are restricted to use in the library with a 3 hour loan period.

The Library tries to maintain at least one copy of every required course textbook. 
Books can be in print or electronic form or both (when available.)

For any questions about Course Reserves, please contact Oscar Chrin, Technical Services Librarian, oscar.chrin@culinary.edu
