The reserve shelf behind the circulation desk. Reserve books are shelved by class name, but if you don't remember that, we can look up the class by instructor's name or name of the book.
Please remember to check out anything you take off of reserve; it's possible that the item you are using will be needed by someone else very soon, and it's helpful for us to know who has it and when it is due back.
Because reserve materials are in high demand, fines and fees are levied on them the morning after check out (1 day or less).
