Fall 2024 Course Reserves at Clermont College’s Frederick A. Marcotte Library

Did you know that students at UC Clermont can check out some course textbooks from the library?

Every semester the library receives a textbook list from the bookstore and we work to put items on course reserve here. We identify course textbooks that are over $100 and try to buy those from the bookstore, our vendors, or by other means if we can. If we happen to have a course book that is under $100 that is already in our existing collection, we will also put those items on course reserve when we find them. Unfortunately we aren’t able to buy some textbooks even if they’re over $100 because they are custom, loose leaf, subscription, or rental only, but we do our best! As of last year, we default to ordering an eBook copy if it is available. If no eBook copy is available for library purchase and circulation, then we will buy a physical copy.

The reserves we have can be seen organized by instructor name at this link. They can be seen organized by class name/number at this link 

Physical reserves check out for four hours and can be used in the library, some are available as ebooks and can be accessed online any time. Visit UC Clermont Library’s front desk to check out physical reserves.

If you have any questions about course reserves or are an instructor that would like for us to add an item to reserves for any of your courses, please contact the library at clermontlibrary@uc.edu

Take our textbooks anywhere

Great news – our textbooks are now available for checkout beyond the library’s walls!

The library purchases core textbooks for Clermont College classes, and they’d previously been available for 2-hour checkout inside the library only.  We’ve relaxed our policy, so now students can take them ANYWHERE for 2 hours. Take your book to class, take your book outside, take your book to Subway – whatever floats your boat.

If you have any questions about our textbooks, please contact the library’s Public Services Manager, Natalie Winland.

Let’s make fall 2017 a great semester, together!

Knowledge is Our Super Power!
