Get your textbooks here!

To better serve students, the Library has partnered with the Illini Union Bookstore to provide copies of textbooks required for selected courses. A broad list of books is now available through the course reserve service, which you can search by course or instructor name. Reserve books must stay in the library to ensure they are available for all students in a course, and can be checked out for up to 2 hours.

If you need help searching the library online catalog for course reserves, or wish to check out materials, please come to the Media & Reserve Center desk or chat or IM us and we'll be happy to assist you. This project is supported with matching funds from the Office of the Provost.

If we don't have your textbook on reserve, or you want a copy to take home with you, you can also search for it in our catalog by looking up the title of the book. Please be aware that we do NOT have all textbooks for all classes, and that the library's Interlibrary Loan service usually does not get textbooks from other libraries, although you can try requesting items from other ILCSO (in state) libraries through the UIUC Online catalog. So, if we don't have a textbook on campus, we may not be able to get it for you.

Questions about the textbook program? Email Mary Laskowski at mkschnei@uiuc.edu.
