RESERVES
Circulation/Reserves staff are ready to help faculty keep their electronic reserve readings (ERES) compliant with copyright provisions. The relevant readings are those not contained in a journal to which Langsdale subscribes in either paper or electronic format or those which are part of a book not in Langsdale’s Collection. More than one semester’s use of such a reading by the same instructor for the same course would require action to make that use copyright compliant. All other readings, however, can be used indefinitely under the provisions of fair use.
To allow
us to keep readings copyright compliant, we need two things from you when
you request that a reading be placed on ERES. First provide a full bibliographic
citation; the reading cannot be posted without it. Second, provide the
number of students in the class(es). Both are essential for obtaining
permission for a reading’s continued use. New reserve request forms
will be issued to each department. Provision of complete information will
insure faster processing of your request.
We look forward to hearing from you at the earliest convenient date. You
may arrange a meeting by calling 410-837-4260 or emailing reserves@ubalt.edu.
