Textbooks and Course Reserves - Edmon Low Library

Textbook Initiative

The Edmon Low Library purchases required course texts priced at $90 or more to help reduce textbook costs. These are available for 2-hour checkout at the Circulation & Information Desk, ensuring as many students as possible can access them.

Course Reserves

Instructors can place required course materials on reserve so students can access them for short loan periods. Both library-owned and personal copies can be placed on reserve, and items remain on reserve for one calendar year.
