Electronic Reserves

Electronic Reserves refers to documents the & reading materials instructors keep on their course pages on Blackboard. The library no longer scans and uploads documents to blackboard for faculty but we are willing to assist and we have scanners available here in the library if you need access to a scanner. Content is uploaded to course folders located in the eReserves section of Blackboard, materials are only visible to students enrolled in those courses.

Copyright Limitations

In compliance with the Copyright fair use guidelines the following materials can be placed on electronic reserves:

  • One article from a journal per class per semester
  • Up to 10% or 2 chapters of a book’s contents per class per semester whichever is less.

Contacts

For general information on managing courses on blackboard here are the Blackboard support pages documents. From there you can also submit questions as a support ticket.
