Milne library has a growing collection of required course texts for many of the courses taught on campus. Most are available for 4 hour loan at the Service Desk.
For an in-depth explanation of all that is available, check out our Find Textbooks and Course Reserves Guide. With many options of how to access required materials for students’ different courses, the process may be confusing. This guide will help students find material for their coursework.
If Milne doesn’t have the text or course reading that you need on reserve at the Service Desk, you may be able to find it in the general collection. Here are a few ways to find out:
- Search for the title in GLOCAT+ to see if we have it in the library’s general collection.
- Search for the title of your textbook on our How Do I Find My Course Texts library guide to see if we have it on 4 hour reserve at the Service Desk.
- Search for it in IDS Search to see if we can borrow it for you from another library.
And don’t forget about our new Kindle Textbooks on Reserve!
We are piloting a new way of providing affordable access to textbooks. Starting this semester, we will be circulating selected textbooks on Kindle Fire HD tablets. The Kindles can be checked out for 4 hours and include the following textbooks:
Molecular Biology of the Cell (Alberts, 5th ed.)
Multivariable Calculus (Stewart, 7th ed.)
Organic Chemistry (Solomons, 11th ed.)
Organic Chemistry (McMurry, 8th ed.)
