If your professor has requested a textbook (or other materials) to be put on reserve at the Library Services Desk, you can check them out for two hours. Please ask for the course number (i.e., Psychology 100) and the professor's name. 

To see if your textbook is on reserve, please search for the title in MegaSearch. Here's a brief video that demonstrates the steps.

Here's an example of a catalog record for a book on reserve at the Library Services Desk. If you have any questions, please email askames@iwu.edu.
