The Libraries Course Reserves is a service provided by the University of Iowa Libraries, where the libraries set aside high-demand physical materials for short-term loans and makes electronic materials available in ICON. Materials can be put on reserve for university courses, study groups, communities of practice and other organized groups affiliated with the university.<\/p>\n
ICON Integration <\/strong><\/p>\n The University Libraries offers several ways to integrate library resources and services into ICON.\u00a0Using library resources in ICON saves students from paying for materials the Libraries already have available, and it ensures all students have access to relevant material.<\/p>\n Instructors can create, update, modify and reuse the Library Course Materials+ page for their courses. Please see our\u00a0Library Course Materials Guide<\/a>\u00a0for more information.<\/p>\n Loan, Renewal Periods and Fines<\/strong><\/p>\n Please check your library of choice for loan period and renewal options. For information on fines and fees please visit:<\/p>\n Media (Streaming, etc.)<\/strong><\/p>\n Access to films will primarily be provided by streaming media. Licenses should be acquired early and checked each semester for renewal. For more information on media, visit Streaming Media through UI Libraries<\/a>.<\/p>\n Due to staff time constraints, the Main Library’s policy is to limit physical media on reserve as much as possible.<\/p>\n For an exception to this policy to be made, the following criteria must be met:<\/p>\n Before submitting a request for physical media on reserve, please consult with your liaison librarian to discuss availability and access options. Instructors who screen films on DVD or Blu-Ray in class should request them four or more weeks in advance of the screening date.<\/p>\n Students are welcome to check out films on DVD and Blu-Ray from the Libraries. The Main Library has desktop computers with CD drives (please bring wired earbuds or headphones to watch films on those computers) and a viewing station equipped with region-free DVD and Blu-Ray player and a VHS player.<\/p>\n Copyright, Fair Use and OER<\/strong><\/p>\n Textbooks and Instructors Personal Copies<\/strong><\/p>\n If the Libraries does not own the material you need, you should request that it be purchased in the format you need as soon as possible. Before you decide to adopt a text, your liaison librarian<\/a> will be able to help you determine if the material can be purchased by the Libraries.<\/p>\n Personal copies of books will only be accepted if the Libraries is unable to purchase the book to be placed on reserve. Please work with your library\u2019s course reserves department or your liaison librarian<\/a> to request the purchase of materials. Some books can take longer for us to acquire, so to ensure your course materials will be available by the beginning of the semester, please plan on requesting new items 4-6 weeks in advance.<\/p>\n Course Content Consultation<\/strong><\/p>\n Save your students money by working with your library liaison<\/a> to find accessible and customized course content and materials already purchased through the University Libraries. The libraries have access to full-text databases, journals, e-books, and streaming media that can easily be added to your course.<\/p>\n Revised December 2023<\/span><\/p>\n Leganto Implementation Team\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" The Libraries Course Reserves is a service provided by the University of Iowa Libraries, where the libraries set aside high-demand physical materials for short-term loans and makes electronic materials available […]<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":9,"featured_media":0,"parent":298,"menu_order":6,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","template":"pagetpl-about.php","meta":{"footnotes":"","_members_access_role":[],"_members_access_error":"","_links_to":"","_links_to_target":""},"categories":[],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-314","page","type-page","status-publish","hentry","","about","wp-json","wp","v2","pages","314"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.lib.uiowa.edu\/about\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/pages\/314","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.lib.uiowa.edu\/about\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/pages"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.lib.uiowa.edu\/about\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/page"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.lib.uiowa.edu\/about\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/9"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.lib.uiowa.edu\/about\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=314"}],"version-history":[{"count":27,"href":"https:\/\/www.lib.uiowa.edu\/about\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/pages\/314\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":2515,"href":"https:\/\/www.lib.uiowa.edu\/about\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/pages\/314\/revisions\/2515"}],"up":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.lib.uiowa.edu\/about\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/pages\/298"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.lib.uiowa.edu\/about\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=314"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.lib.uiowa.edu\/about\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=314"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.lib.uiowa.edu\/about\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=314"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}\n
