• Course Reserve items can be searched by the name of the course instructor (Last name, First Name), the course name, or the course number (ex.  MATH:149).

• Reserve items may also be searched by book title, ISBN number, or library call number. Note: different versions of a textbook can have differing ISBN numbers, so is recommended to search in more than one way for a book.
