Other General Reserve Procedures


Library staff transfer books to Reserve during the year if more than three reservations are placed by borrowers on a single title.

A minimum of 1 copy of each course textbook (as listed by the CoOp Bookshop) is ordered for the Reserve collection.

Placing multiple copies of items in Reserve (books, A/V and Unit folders) depends on the number of enrolled students in a Unit and on the Library holdings. When ordering multiple copies of items, the following criteria apply:

1-100 students, 2 copies

101-150 students, 3 copies

151-200 students, 4 copies

201-1000 students, 5 copies (negotiable)

Please note: At the end of each semester, the Reserve collection is weeded to make space for material required for the next semester. All hard copy Unit folder material is removed and archived for one year.
