Use this form to request a book be placed on reserve for your course. This form can be used for books, periodicals, DVDs, and/or streaming films.
Prior to placing your reserve request, please check the Library Discovery Search and limit your results to Books/Media @ Purchase to see if the Library has the item(s) in our collections. If we own this title, please provide the call number and the permalink to the item in Discovery Search.
If not owned, enter as much information in this form as possible, especially ISBN number, year, distributor, etc., to facilitate ordering materials you are requesting. The Library will attempt to order an ebook for all requests for items not already in the collection. A print book will only be ordered if an ebook is not available. If the library has a DVD, this will be the default format if streaming is unavailable.
If you have more than ten (10) reserve requests for the same semester, please email lib.reserves@purchase.edu instead of filling out the form multiple times.
