The purpose of the Reserve Room is to assist the teaching faculty by providing a
facility in which there is
controlled circulation of class material needed by their students. Traditional
and digital course lists are
accessible through the CONSULS catalog by Instructor or Course Name. The Reserve
Room also contains
VCR, CD, DVD and audiocassette players for student use.
Traditional Reserves
The materials for reserve may consist of:
- Library books, videos, DVDs and CD-ROMs.
- 1 copy of a photocopied article, chapter etc., as allowed by the
"Fair Use"
guidelines of the Federal Copyright Law.
- Class notes, personal books, personal copies of journals, videos, DVDs, CDs,
CD-ROMs, audiocassettes etc.
These materials may be placed on reserve by bringing them to the Reserve Room
and filling out a course list
form or sending an email to
kropf@ccsu.edu for library materials. They will be
processed in order of receipt.
Please allow at least 2 weeks during the first few weeks of the semester. There
is no deadline for submitting materials for reserve.
Please include a copy of the course syllabus.
Important!
All photocopies must include a credit line with the author, book or journal
title, publisher and copyright
date or volume & number from the work copied. No items will be processed without
