Welcome to Course Reserves
The University of Iowa Libraries have recently adopted a new course reserves software that is integrated into ICON. The tool, called “Course Materials+” in your ICON online course space, leverages the power of Ex Libris Leganto and the libraries catalog (InfoHawk+) to develop content diverse reading lists and helps make course materials more accessible to students.
Search for Course Reserve material in InfoHawk+
The UI Libraries have created quick start guides for instructors to easily make their lists with CM+.
Course Reserves + Digital Resources = Course Materials+
With Course Materials+ you can assemble content of all types; physical & e-books, online or digitized book chapters, scholarly articles, videos, images, electronic resources, and any other type of content, to create a flexible and interactive reading list.
Getting Started in ICON
- In Course Navigation, click the Settings link.
- Open Navigation
- Click the vertical ellipsis (on the right side) for Course Materials+ and click Enable
- Save Navigation
Instructors can communicate with their library in ICON by clicking on the Library Discussion tab, located on the right side of the reading list or contact Main Library Course Reserves at http://www.lib.uiowa.edu/reserve/.
The UI Main Library will support course reserve form submissions until September 14th, 2022. At that time, the online course reserve form will be closed. Campus libraries will continue to use their online form(s) until further notice.
