Traditional Course Reserves

For the Summer 2026 term, Course Reserves will be available in electronic format only as we prepare for our move back into the newly renovated and expanded Carrier Library.

Placing materials on Course Reserve means shortening the checkout period to 4 hours or 4 days so they may more easily be used by multiple students. JMU Libraries offers Course Reserves at all our library locations.

  • Physical materials from the JMU Libraries’ collections and your personal copies of materials may be placed on reserve for students to access during library hours.
  • E-books in our collection can also be linked from a Course Reserves list.
  • Personal copies of materials to be placed on reserve can be delivered to any service desk or via campus mail to The Hub, Room 1002, MSC 1704, Attention: April Beckler. Be sure to include the following information with materials for course reserve: Instructor name(s), Course number and section, library branch location for checkout, and reserve loan period (4-hour or 4-day).
  • If you would like to request the purchase of materials not owned by JMU Libraries for course reserves, please email reserves@jmu.edu. In collaboration with Liaison Librarians, Course Reserves staff can order new materials for the collection that can be put on reserve at any of our 4 locations.
