Placing Materials on Reserve: Instructions for Faculty and InstructorsInstructors may place print course materials that are expected to be in high demand or that require special security in the library's reserve section. You may designate shorter loan periods for high demand materials, such as two-hour or one-day. Reserve collections are usually shelved behind the library's circulation desk, where items are paged by call number. Electronic Course Reserves (bSpace)Placing Electronic Course Reserve Materials on bSpace You can link or upload many of the Library's electronic resources as eReadings in the campus' collaborative learning environment, bSpace. Use the Providing Persistent Links guide for help with creating stable links to library resources in bSpace. All UC Berkeley students and instructors have existing bSpace accounts. To access your bSpace account, visit bspace.berkeley.edu/. To link or upload online course materials in bSpace, you must first create a site for the course in question. Learn how to do this from a tutorial. Or visit an Educational Technology Services workshop for in-person help. Due to copyright restrictions, placing the print versions of entire books and journal issues currently under copyright protection on reserve is often the best action. See the University of California Copyright web site, particularly "Using Copyrighted Works," for more information about the fair use of copyrighted materials.
