How do I find what physical books my professor has put on reserve for my class?

My professor says that there are reserve books--where do I go to get them? How do I ask for them? How do I find my professor's old test keys--he said there were copies in the library?


  1. Start from the Mercer University's Libraries Website.

  2. Select the "Books & Media" tab just below the Discovery Search bar.

  3. Next, where it says “Search for:” click the button that says "Course Reserves.”

  4. You can search by professor name or the course code (ex. INT 101, MAT 293). If you're using the course code, you need a space between the letters and the numbers.

  5. If there are any books your professor has reserved it will show up along with the location of pick up.

  6. Because these physical books are on course reserve, you can only check them out for a limited time. Circulation will let you know your due date when you check out the book.
