Reserve a Room in the Library
Faculty and Staff can reserve certain spaces in the library to use specific instructional materials such as Education tests, for presentations, or for committee meetings. Please note that the CTLS and ePortfolio lab are scheduled separately from other spaces in the library.
Reserve Requests
For the best student experience, please use hard copy reserves only when necessary. Please consider making all required course materials available online.
