Place Items on Reserve

Wentworth instructors may place course materials on reserve using the Add Items to Reserves form; please review our Course Reserves policies in the section below.

Instructors may place books and DVDs on course reserve for the span of 1, 2, or 3 semesters. All course reserves will be evaluated after 3 semesters on reserve. If the Library does not already own a copy of the item, you may choose to provide a personal copy, or the Library will purchase a copy to place on reserve.

Because students can easily access the following materials from their permanent Library locations, we do not place on reserve:

  • Reference materials
  • Issues of print periodicals the Library owns
  • Textbooks*

Due to copyright/licensing restrictions, we do not place on reserve:

  • Items acquired via Interlibrary Loan
  • Instructor's review copies
  • Workbooks
  • Coursepacks
  • Photocopies**
  • Digital publications

*Exception: a personal copy of a textbook may be placed on reserve.

**If you wish to provide access to photocopied portions of copyrighted works or photocopies of your own materials, consider placing these documents in your course module on Brightspace, to limit access to the students who are in your class. For assistance using Brightspace, please contact Teaching & Learning Collaborative (TLC).

Instructors may place books and media on reserve for a specific course using the Add Items to Reserves form.
