ELECTRONIC RESERVE

Electronic reserve allows students to access their class E-Reserve readings and audio materials from remote locations.  Current access to the system is limited to faculty and to UWSP students enrolled in courses that use electronic reserve. 

Faculty:  items should be identified for reserve cataloging in the same manner as on your syllabus. Students should know specifically what to ask or search for.

 Audio E-Reserve Materials

Music, classroom lectures, and MP3 format material may be placed on E-Reserve.  Contact Lin Vogel, lvogel@uwsp.edu; 346-4428 for procedures.
