Library staff will hide course pages and records at the end of each semester.
If you would like digital copies of your readings, please send an email to eres@owu.edu.
Usage statistics will be compiled and sent along with an email informing faculty when and how to pick up reserve items.

As a way to help stretch student budgets and contribute to retention efforts, the Libraries are asking faculty to consider putting personal copies of textbooks and, if the publisher allows, review copies of textbooks on reserve. Not sure if your review copy can go on reserve? Check the agreement you signed with the publisher when you accepted the review copy. It will let you know if sharing with a third party is acceptable. There are no limitations on personal copies. Thanks for your consideration.
