Expanded Course Reserves

Want to save money? Our expanded course reserves program (a new pilot this year!) means that every required textbook for 100-level classes has a copy on reserve at the libraries

 Want to save money? This fall, the Libraries are partnering with the Colby Bookstore to expand access to textbooks in a new pilot program. Our goal is to have one copy of each required 100-level book on reserve at the library (with some exceptions). Course reserves are shelved behind the service desk and can be borrowed for 4 hours at a time, unless otherwise specified by a professor. Some reserves are even available as ebooks! This makes it easier for all students in a class to have access to crucial course materials without cost as a barrier. Check the course reserves for your classes in LibrarySearch by searching for your course code!
If you benefit from this program or have suggestions, let us know at [email protected]! Your feedback will help us improve course reserves for students in future years.
