Course Reserves

Reserves allow students to use materials set aside by faculty to assist in coursework. This may include reading material, practice exams, problem sets, etc. For questions on reserves, contact Nasir Mirza, Galvin Library Reserves Specialist (7-3620).

Print Reserve materials are available only at the Galvin Library Circulation Desk. This includes books, videos, textbooks, and other copyrighted material. Reserve materials cannot be renewed and must be returned directly to the Circulation Desk. There is a 15-minute waiting period before re-borrowing a returned reserve item.

Textbooks
It is not library policy, nor practice, to purchase circulating copies of textbooks for students. Some current textbooks have been placed on reserve. To search for textbooks on reserve, use the IIT Library Catalog. For more information on the library's textbook policy, click here.
