What is Course Reserves?
Course Reserves is a library service that provides course-related materials made available, either electronically or physically, through the UC Santa Barbara Library. Items that may be on reserve for a class include books, videos, course readers, textbooks, ebooks, articles, book chapters, journal articles, recordings, class handouts, and information.
Digitization of Library media collections for Course Reserves will be discontinued at the beginning of Fall quarter. We have many subscriptions to streaming music content and are in the process of purchasing new streaming resources. Links to this content can be placed on electronic Course Reserves. Additionally, physical media can be placed on Course Reserves for all students in a course.
