Putting Materials on Reserve

Faculty can place an item on reserve by filling out the form here, emailing circdesk@ccny.cuny.edu, or by stopping by the Cohen Library Circulation Desk to fill out a paper request.

Need to find a reserve item?

Search by title or author in OneSearch, and note down both the library location and call number. Find detailed instructions on that process here.

For items at Cohen Library, you can also use this sort-able and searchable list to find books on reserve by title, author, or call number.
