Go to Fulfillment > Resource Requests > Scan in Items.
Click on the Change Item Information tab.
Use the following settings:
Change Type: Temporary
Location: Reserves
Call Number Type: leave blank
Reading List: [leave blank/choose course]
Note: If you're asked to add the course information, you can click on the list button and select the appropriate course(s). Otherwise, leave the field blank -- if the item has already been added to the course, putting in course information here will add it to the course a second time. Also, if you're adding course information here, make sure the appropriate course is selected before each individual scan.

Put your cursor in the Scan item barcode box and scan the item(s).
When you're finished, click the Exit button.
Physical Processing
Physical Processing
Place a Library Use Only sticker on the left side of the barcode sticker on the front of the item.
Add a Reserve sticker to the bottom of the spine label and cover it with a small label protector (since the Reserve stickers tend to flip off easily).
Note: It's OK if the Reserve sticker covers part of the call number. The reserves collection is small enough that it shouldn't really matter.
Once you've finished physically processing the item(s), give it/them to the library services staff for placement on the Reserves shelves behind the library services desk.
