LHL Electronic Reserve (E-Reserve) is available to UAB course instructors and is designed to make biomedical and health sciences materials available to students through WebCT course shells. Items can also be put on physical reserve in the library.

How to request an item on E-Reserve
To submit requests, use the form on the library web page at http://www.uab.edu/lister/reserves/.

Processing generally takes 5 working days, holidays and weekends excluded, but we encourage you to submit requests in advance if possible. Rush requests will be handled as time allows.

Complete and accurate citation information will help us post items more quickly. If you need help with a citation, contact the reference staff at http://www.uab.edu/lister/qpask/.

Notification will be sent to the requestor when items are complete to allow the faculty to review materials and link in their WebCT course.

Types of Materials Accepted for E-Reserve
Materials suitable for E-Reserve include:

• Journal articles (available either in print or online)
• Book chapters

Entire books will be put on physical reserve at the ground floor help desk in Lister Hill Library.
