What difficulties with Reserves frequently arise?
Sometimes pages disappear from folders.  When this happens, the library staff makes an effort to inform the instructor.  However, we appreciate patrons who notice a missing page to report the problem. 

Test File
This particular collection of materials has restricted access, which library staff heavily enforce.  If you are unsure about Test File policies, please speak with a librarian.

What can faculty do to make accessing Reserve materials easier?

Bring in materials for Reserve two to three days before your students need to access them.  Sometimes, Reserve materials will be available for checkout the day you bring them in but they are processed on a first-come first-serve basis.  So, at the beginning of the quarter, it is important to have materials in with time to spare.

List items on the Reserve Request Form in the same way that you refer to these items in class.  Because the materials are entered into the on-line catalog by the title you provide, it will benefit the students to be familiar with the resource's title as you have listed it on the Reserve Request Form.
