Reserve Process:

2. Each student may check out only ONE Reserve item at a time, but they can come back to the Circulation Desk to renew anytime.

3. ALL Reserve items must be checked out in FOLIO.

4. Items placed on Reserve for a course DO NOT leave Dinand. (There are rare exceptions when a professor may borrow their own items to use in class that day. Ask a supervisor if you need help.)

5. Check In and re-file all Reserve items promptly.

6. Re-file all items carefully.

7. Report any missing Reserve items ASAP to the supervisor on duty.

8. It is your responsibility to learn how to assist students to look up Reserve item information on FOLIO or in VuFind. Use the Courses tab in FOLIO to help you find Reserve items. 

a. Student workers have limited access to the Courses app in FOLIO. Supervisors have full access.

9. When student workers or faculty drop off items to be placed on Reserve, put them on the Access Services Coordinator's desk with a note. Be sure to include faculty name, course name, and course code.

10. If Reserve items are returned overdue, write down the patron's name and inform a supervisor so fines can be waived.
