Materials to be placed on reserve must be submitted to the library 24 hours before any student assignments. There is no limit to the amount of material that can be placed on reserve.

Each department receives an allocation from the library's book and media fund for the fiscal year. To add a new book to the library, a Book Order form must be submitted to the Acquisitions department by March 1.

New journals require an ongoing commitment of funds. Please contact your liaison librarian to discuss new additions to the periodicals collection.
