Returning Law Reserve Materials
Short term loans are set for heavy demand items that are then placed on Reserve, usually by faculty teaching a specific course.
To request an item held in the law library reserve collection, users need to bring the call number of the item to the law library reading room desk. Only 2 reserve items may be borrowed at one time.
Reserve materials must be returned promptly to the Law Library Reading Room Desk. Fines will be charged and borrowing suspended until overdue reserve materials are returned.
Faculty wishing to place items on reserve for their students should contact John Papadopoulos (Head Law Librarian).
