Copyright : Library Reserve

Consider placing the following types of material on reserve at the Circulation desk:

• Course textbooks
• Optional books for further reading
• Sample papers (with permission)
• Lecture notes (if durably bound)

Thorne Library offers faculty the opportunity to place course-related items on library reserve, provided that use of the material complies with US Copyright Law (Title 17 U.S.C. Section 107) and the fair use guidelines.

Faculty can learn about placing items on reserve... 

...via the Thorne Library's Course Reserves page, or items may be submitted to the Assistant Director and Public Services Coordinator, Zac Sherman.

As a safeguard against copyright infringement, the library has taken the following measures:

• Materials are housed at the Circulation desk and are available for short-term checkout.
• Journal articles, book excerpts, and photocopied materials are not eligible for Reserve. 
• Student-generated work may be placed on Reserve only with written permission from the student.

Review the "Common Scenarios" page for more guidelines on the fair use and course reserves.
