Guidelines for Electronic Reserves Pilot Project

  • Interested faculty may contact the Reserves Department at 303-352-3847 if you have any questions.
  • Due to copyright considerations, Electronic Reserves are managed in accordance with the Auraria Library Electronic Reserves Policy. Requests which do not conform to this policy will not be accepted for Electronic Reserves.
  • Reserves staff will be responsible for scanning and creating the Adobe Acrobat Reader (.PDF) files for use as Electronic Reserves. Instructors are responsible for providing legible 81/2 X 11 inch copies to scan. Illegble or nonstandard sized copies will not be placed on Electronic Reserves, they will be placed in Traditional Reserves at our discretion.

Guidelines for Traditional Reserves

  • FALL RUSH--The best advice is--Bring your materials in early!!! Materials brought to the Reserves Department prior to the beginning of the semester will be ready by the first day of class. Materials brought to the department after classes begin can take up to seven (7) days to be processed due to fall rush. Please keep in mind these processing time requirements when announcing the availability of reserve materials to students.
  • It is not necessary to check-out library-owned materials under your name; just bring the materials and completed Reserve List form to the Reserves desk.
  • If materials are to be placed on reserve and are not owned by the library, it is the responsibility of the faculty member to contact the appropriate bibliographer, who will in most cases place a rush reserve order for the item(s) required.
  • All personal materials placed on reserve will be given a call number consisting of the first three letters of the faculty members last name along with a number designation.
  • The Auraria Library and the Reserves Department are not responsible for theft and/or damage to personal books or papers placed on Reserve.
  • All copyright laws and guidelines are strictly enforced.
  • Reserves staff do not make photocopies for students or faculty.
  • Periodicals, Reference items, and materials from other libraries will not be placed on Reserve.
  • No material will be placed on "permanent" reserve. To do so is a violation of copyright law.
  • All materials will be removed from Reserves and returned to the faculty or faculty offices at the end of each Spring Semester unless the faculty member wishes to pick up the material.
