Locating Reserve Materials: A Two-Pronged Approach
All items (books, .pdf files, audio files, course notes, etc.) on Reserve for your courses will be listed in your Blackboard course lists.
- Log in with your NetID and password and select your course.
- Reserve materials are listed under the Course Tools/Course Reserves link.
- For information on using Blackboard see Blackboard Student Support or or e-mail questions to Consult@syr.edu.
Physical items (books, CDs, music scores) are also listed by course and instructor in the Course Reserves tab of SUMMIT. These items must be checked out from a library service desk.
- Use the SUMMIT Course Reserve search to learn if the item you need is currently available.
- Locate the desired item(s) and note the call number.
- Ask for the item by call number at the appropriate Circulation/Reserve desk and a staff member will retrieve it for you. (The call number for most physical items also appears in Blackboard but current availability only appears in SUMMIT.)
Borrowing Physical Reserve Materials
You will need to present your valid Syracuse University ID card to borrow reserve materials. Items are loaned on a first-come, first-served basis and may not be recalled or placed on hold due to the high demand for these materials. Note that the Circulation/Reserve desks close 15 minutes before the library closing time.
Loan Periods
You may borrow up to two reserve items at a time. Loan periods are as follows:
2 hour reserve For in-library use; all videos are two-hour reserve 1 day reserve
Materials may be taken out of the library
