Libraries’ New Course Reserve System Debuts
The Libraries’ new Electronic Course Reserve system enables faculty to place material online for students more easily and more quickly than ever before. Once a HuskyCT course has been requested in PeopleSoft, faculty simply click on the new “Library Resources” link and can:
- tag items by subject, author, etc., see and select items from past reserve lists
- see how often items were accessed and by whom, and set start and end dates for when items are visible to students.
