Course Reserve - Depositing Service

Course Reserve is a service offered to teaching staff to make course related materials available to students and other users in a one-stop-shop manner. Materials in the Course Reserve are for short loans (1 day or 3 days) as designated by the teaching staff, so as to expedite circulation. In addition, the course materials will be easily accessible to students on the CityUHK Canvas by clicking the "Library Resources" link inside the corresponding courses.

Depositing Guidelines

IMPORTANT NOTES:

• Please read our Depositing Policy carefully before submitting your request.
• When depositing Course Reserve, you must state clearly the name of the instructor, the course code and the name of the course.
• The Library will put all Course Reserve materials back to their original locations for normal circulation and remove links to E-Books and E-articles by the end of Semester B.
• For each requested item, if there is an electronic version, the Library will replace the book reserve request with an E-Book and will reply the requester via email with an online access.
