Course Reserves

Course Reserves are reading material listed in the course outline. They are mainly two types of course reserves, (a) required reading materials, and (b) supplementary reading material. If a book falls under the "Course Reserve at Counter" collection, the book is placed behind the Library Counter and you will need to ask Library staff to retrieve it.
