The Bethel Library offers a Course Reserve for faculty to place certain materials on reserve for specific assignments.
Faculty must submit a Course Reserve Request online with the stipulations on how they would like the loan period to be set. The request goes to the Library Dean at boutwellm@bethelu.edu.
Loan Period options:
-
- In-Library Use Only
- Overnight
- 3 Day Loan Period
Faculty Supplied Materials
Faculty supplying personal materials are not the responsibility of the library should the materials become lost, stolen, damaged, or broken.
Course Reserve Check-out
-
- In-Library Use Only- Take and hold Students ID until return, scan barcode
- Overnight- Check-out as normal and reiterate that the item is due the next day
- 3 Day Loan Period-out as normal and reiterate that the item is due in 3 days
- Library staff will not automatically try to retrieve items checked out by a student if they are overdue. If a student comes in and requests we do so we will attempt this by sending an email.
If there is increased demand for a course reserve item, the library staff will implement 2-hour use timeframes to ensure fairness.
To add an item to the Course Reserve, please email library@bethelu.edu
