Reserves

Generated by the Disability & Technology Working Group, this site is intended to ensure quick access to and awareness of already existing resources offered by The New School University departments and on the web, newly acquired tools, and the accessibility features of commonly used platforms.

If an ebook version exists, we will place it on Course Reserve to support reducing textbook costs for your students.

Compliance and fair use are assessed for all electronic reserves. PDFs from larger portions of a copyrighted book will take longer to process. We will communicate with you if your request does not meet copyright requirements, and will help you identify alternatives.

Please ask your professor to contact their department to have you registered as a TA or RA in Banner. Then, you'll be able to access Course Reserves in Canvas as an instructor. View our Reserves Research Guide for more information.

(SDS) and the library will work with you to support the accessibility needs of your students. We have students who need digital texts and closed captioning to be equal participants in class. Whenever possible, please order and assign texts that are available in digital format so that students utilizing accessibility technology (i.e., Kurzweil) will be able to read them. Accessible video has closed captioning options. If you have questions, please contact StudentDisability@newschool.edu.

Ebook licenses vary (learn more) and may not always be possible to acquire. If an ebook version is requested but not available, we will notify you and offer to put the print book on the reserves shelf instead.
