For Faculty: Reserve Material

Due to digital rights management (DRM) licensing by publishers, the library cannot make e-textbooks from Pearson, Cengage, Houghton, McGraw Hill, Elsevier available on reserve, as these are sold as single user access to the student. They are not available for unlimited access to all students in the class.

• Reserve items are for library use only by students. 
• Students must have a SUNY Adirondack (or Plattsburgh) student ID card or another photo ID to use reserve items

To place an item on reserve:

1.  Please fill out and submit a SUNY Adirondack Library Reserves Form. (See link on left.)
2. Faculty may request that the library purchase print copies of textbooks for reserve, if available. Most textbooks are published in digital format only and and not available for multi-user licensing.
3. Photocopies must include the full citation for the original source and comply with Copyright and Fair use Guidelines
4. Contact library staff member Bailey Durham (durhamb@sunyacc.edu) with any questions.  (518) 743-2260, ext. 2414
