Personal Items on Reserve

Personal (non-library) reserve items may be put on reserve, with the following considerations:

Items are subject to minimal library processing, including affixing barcodes, tattle-tape, and call numbers.

Personal materials may be placed on reserve with the understanding that loss or damage is a possibility, and the library will not be responsible in case of such an occurrence.
