Sometimes your teacher will place instructional materials or a copy of the class textbook on reserve at the library. These materials are not for checkout, and can only be used in the library.
Searching the Online Catalog for Course Reserves
Step 1: You’ll use the Classic Catalog for this search: http://www.lib.epcc.edu/

Step 2: You can search by the Course (this is different from the course section) or Faculty (the instructor’s name).
Let’s run a faculty search. Selecting the faculty tab, I typed in my instructor’s last name, Moreno, into the search box. Then click search.

Step 3: The results page listed instructors with the last name Moreno. You can check your course schedule/syllabus to see what their first name is, and also select by campus. I see my instructor is listed twice, and it seems she teaches at two EPCC campuses. I attend the Valle Verde campus, so I will select the one with VV in the list.

Step 4: In the results page we see that this professor has put one book on reserve. I check my syllabus or notes to see if this is the book title I need.

Step 5: Now that I know this title is available, I will ask to borrow it at the Reserves section of the Valle Verde campus library (It’s right next to the Circulation Desk).
