Course Reserves
Course Reserves are created upon instructor request to support a particular class. Materials are made available either online or physically through the UCLA Library. Items that may be on reserve for a class include textbooks, articles, lecture notes, case studies, previous exams, and other supplementary readings as requested by course instructors.
Finding Course Reserves
Course Reserves can be searched by instructor name, department name, or course number in the UCLA Library Catalog Course Reserves Tab.
Loan Period
Most reserve items are checked out for two hours. These items may be kept overnight when checked out during the last two hours the library is open, and they are due back within the first hour the library reopens.
Some course reserves are library use only.
Accessing Online Reserves
UCLA Proxy Server or the Virtual Private Network (VPN) is required to access online reserves and course management systems.
Avoiding Fines
Avoid fines by returning materials on time. More information can be found on the Fees and Fines page.
