Formats of Materials

Traditional reserves are typically used for books, videos, and other audiovisuals.

Submitting Requests

Materials must be brought to the Connection Center in the Conaton Learning Commons (CLC) accompanied by a form. Print forms are available at the Connection Cente, but they are also available electronically or in interactive PDF.

Turnaround Time

Please allow 3-5 business days to process traditional reserves requests. At the beginning of each semester additional time may be required and submitting requests early will ensure your requests are processed by the time you need them. The circulation staff processes materials in the order that they are received and we do not have the resources to provide rush service.
