Accessing Reserves Print Material

The Reserves Collection in the Robert L. Carothers Library & Learning Commons, Kingston, contains material designated by University faculty as high-use or required readings for specific courses. Items on Reserve for a course may include books, articles from periodicals, or special items loaned by faculty. A number of high-use items unrelated to specific courses are also located on Reserve.

To access print materials on Reserve, use the Course Reserves link on the University Libraries home page.
