Course Reserves are print course-assigned books.
When a professor has placed a book on "reserve", it is held at the Information and Research Desk for everyone in your class to use, and are available for short-term loan periods. You can use these materials inside of the library or scan the pages you need to save for later.
You can search the library catalog to see if your course book is on reserve or you can walk up to the desk and ask for help.
eTextbooks are electronic versions of course-assigned books.
