Faculty can place materials on reserve at any JSCC Library.  Reserves can be in the form of material owned by the faculty member or material owned by the libraries.  Course reserves are kept at the circulation desk and may be used in the library and photocopied. Please note that the libraries do not purchase circulating copies of current textbooks. Faculty are encouraged to place high demand text books on reserve for their courses, especially if they are in short supply.

By providing material to be placed on reserve in the libraries, faculty understand and guarantee that the materials are in accordance with Fair Use Guidelines and in compliance with Copyright Laws.

The JSCC Libraries also serve the faculty and staff of the college.  As such, the librarians are happy to assist you with your research needs in areas such as course and curriculum development, classroom support materials, program accreditation preparation, and grant support research. We can also assist you with your research as part of your personal degree programs.
