You can search for Maverick Textbooks and other course readings through the library's Textbooks & Course Reserves Page. Items are added daily at the beginning of each semester.
The print and electronic reserve collections at Memorial Library allow faculty to place readings for their students in a central location.
The Maverick Textbook Reserve Program is a longstanding program under the combined efforts of Student Government, Barnes and Noble Bookstore, and Library Services to provide textbooks for short term check out for undergraduate classes with high enrollment numbers. Learn more...
We also place other books on Reserve outside the Maverick Textbook Reserve Program. This reserve collection includes both library-owned materials and faculty owned materials. We have recently enhanced this program by looking at lists of all required course readings for undergraduate classes and proactively taking books from the general collection and moving them to the reserve collection. In some cases, we have purchased multiply copies of books where we anticipate high use. If we have electronic access to books on the required reading list we area adding a link to our electronic reserves and checking to see if multiple users may use these resources whether they be eBooks, chapters of eBooks, or articles. This proactive approach has added large amounts of resources available to more students on reserve. To learn more or request that material be placed on reserve, visit our Reserves page.
Because of COVID-19, our checkout period for reserve books has been expanded from 2 hours (in most cases) to 24 hours.
