Faculty and Staff Information

Please direct any questions about Reserves to library@flemingcollege.ca

Putting course readings and other resources on Reserve ensures that all students have access to this material. Reserves are kept behind the Library Service Desk, filed by either course code (Sutherland), or by instructor name (Frost). Students will need their Student ID to borrow Reserves (and all Library material).

The following regulations maximize access to these high-demand items:

• Reserves are for In-Library use only
• Reserves have very short (same-day) loan periods 

Students may need reminders that textbooks are not typically available through the Library's print or eBook collections. Students should contact the bookstore for textbook options.

Submitting Reserves

You may request to remove your item(s) from Reserve at any time.  At the end of each semester, your items will be delivered to your college mailbox unless you request to keep the material on Reserve for next term. 

Removing Reserves

You may request to remove your item(s) from Reserve at any time.  At the end of each semester, your items will be delivered to your college mailbox unless you request to keep the material on Reserve for next term.

You can book a film in advance to ensure it is available when you need it!  Contact us at library@flemingcollege.ca and let us know the title of the film and your intended showdate.
