Physical reserves (e.g. books, DVDs) are not currently available. Physical materials need to be quarantined for 4 days before reuse, which prevents recirculation needed for print reserves.
Finding and Borrowing Course Reserve Materials
To borrow Course Reserve or other items from the Circulation/Reserve Desk, users must have a CUNY ID with a current validation sticker or stamp. Users must also know the Title of the item they wish to borrow. In addition,
Finding and Borrowing Other Reserve Materials
Non course reserve items, or reserve items that are property of the library rather than of an instructor, may be searched through oneSearch in the Library's online catalog. These include library books, videos and CDs. This material may be searched by title, author or keyword.
Bills for overdue fines may be obtained at the Circulation Desk. Fines are payable only to the College's Bursar Office. Reserve delinquencies may result in the suspension of borrowing privileges. A library stop will be placed on a student's record with the Registrar once a bill is generated for unreturned reserve materials. The library block will remain in place until the material(s) is returned, the overdue fine is settled or the replacement charges (for lost items) are paid.
Fines for overdue laptops are $15 per hour and and $.25 per minute period.
The Circulation/Reserve Desk follow the hours of the library. All reserve material must be returned to the circulation/reserve desk 15minutes before the library closes.
The tabs at the top of the page will provide you with additional information about using E-Reserves effectively and efficiently.
