Reserves

UW Oshkosh Libraries provide course related services to support teaching and learning activities at the University.

Faculty may submit requests at any time throughout the semester. Faculty are encouraged to submit items at least one (1) week before the intended use during the semester. Please allow extra time for processing at the start of the semester. All items are processed in order of their receipt.

Books, videos and sound recordings can be placed on physical reserve. Items on reserve are shelved at the Circulation/Reserve Desk and check out for time periods ranging from 2 hours to 7 days depending on the request of the instructor. Students must come to the Circulation/Reserve Desk and request reserve items and present a valid TitanCard or photo identification to use the materials.

UW Oshkosh Libraries owned materials

• To place UW Oshkosh Libraries owned materials on reserve, use Search@UW to locate call number and title. Fill out, print and sign a Reserve Materials Form. For the most rapid Reserve service, retrieve the items from the shelves and bring them to the Circulation/Reserve desk.
• The request may also be submitted electronically. To submit a reserve request electronically, use the Reserve Form for Library-Owned Materials. Library staff will retrieve the items that you have requested and place them on reserve.

Instructor owned materials

• Items may be brought to the Circulation/Reserve Desk or sent through campus mail. Remember to include the Reserve Material form
