Course Reserves

Student questions about course reserves | Faculty questions

1. How do I go about placing materials on reserve for a class?
Submit a list of items to be put on reserve to Lindgren Library, 54-200, Attn: Joe Hankins. Or fill out the duplicate COOP book order form. (On-line information and order forms are available.) One copy will be forwarded to Lindgren Library. If you fill out a COOP form, you can choose whether the books are required for textbook purchase, library reserve only, or both.

2. How early should I order textbooks for course reserves?
We recommend ordering textbooks for course reserves at least 1 month before the beginning of each semester. Some book orders can take months to arrive from the publisher.

3. Do I need to fill out a special form just to place a book on reserve in Lindgren Library?
In Lindgren Library we prepare a listing of all Course 12 reserves for the students to consult. We will accept a request that includes your name, the name and e-mail address of a library contact (TA perhaps), the course name (number) and book information that may include author, title, publisher, and date of publication. Indicate call number and edition of a book already in the MIT library collection. You may put a personal copy on reserve as well as class notes.
