Getting Started - Library Course Reserve Help
Starting with winter 2012 courses, Library Course Reserves are now requested and delivered online through a new tool in your Course Site. Course Reserve materials include PDFs of articles and book chapters, streaming audio and video.
- Questions about articles and book chapters? Contact Main Reserve via email: e-reserve@northwestern.edu or phone: 847-491-7683
- Questions about streaming audio and video? Contact Digital Collections via email: digitalcollections@northwestern.edu or phone: 847-467-1080
Please note, instructors must make the course available and the link to Course Reserves available as well so students will be able to access the content. For general help with the Course Management System see the CMS Support Tools.
