Go to Course Reserves

The Reserves/Audio-Video Media Services Desk provides convenient access to required reading materials selected by the faculty. Reserves allows many students to equally share class assigned readings. The Reserve collection includes books, articles, audio and video tapes, educational kits and other items which are required for class assignments.

Electronic Reserves is a service available at the Auraria Library that allows students to access course materials via the Internet. Readings selected by faculty are scanned and stored online, usually as PDF files, and can be viewed and printed by registered students who attend any of the three institutions on campus.

All materials, print and electronic, in the Reserve collection are accessible on the Reserves/Audio-Video Media Web pages via the Docutek E-Res software. Electronic reserves are available 24/7, but hard copy items can only be checked out usually for only 2 hrs, although some may be designated for 1 day and 3 day checkout. Also, video materials may only be checked out for 4 hours in library use.

Reserves/Audio-Video Media Services also provides regular and reserve circulation services for the Library’s non-print collections, which include videotapes, audiotapes, film, DVD, and related material. While faculty may borrow A/V materials for in-class use, generally these materials, if needed by students, are expected to be used in Reserves/Audio-Video Media Services with the equipment made available for this purpose.
