Course Reserves

Course support materials available for short term loan to provide maximum availability

What are Reserves?

Course reserves are a curated collection within the Bellevue College Library established in collaboration with instructors and faculty. The Course reserve collection aims to connect students with essential materials for their courses. The collection includes a variety of resources, such as books, visual aids, and models. By placing these materials on reserve, instructors can ensure students convenient access to course-related content at no cost.

How do Reserves Work?

Instructors can place course materials on Course Reserve for students to check out for short periods of time. These items will be kept behind the front desk of the library. Course Reserves provide students with an additional option for accessing course materials needed for classes and research. The loan period for these materials will be determined by instructors.


Timing

To make sure your items are ready by the first day of the quarter, please submit your reserves request at least one week before the quarter begins.
