Available to Wells College teaching faculty and administrators.
Access
24/7 access from any location through the Library tab on The Globe. E-reserves are organized by department code and course number.
Authentication
The Globe requires a Wells-provided user ID and password. Student permissions for each course page are maintained by library staff (checked through Drop/Add period).
Turnaround Time
We will make every attempt to place your material on reserve as quickly as possible. You are encouraged to drop off material prior to the start of the semester. Training is available if you would like to learn how to add, update, and remove content, and/or scan.
Copyright Compliance
Copyrighted or copyright-free material may be placed on reserve in accordance with the Long Library Copyright Policy. All PDFs created by library staff will contain a copyright statement.
Citation Information
Full citation information is required for proper attribution and adherence to the Long Library Copyright Policy. Any material missing this will not be placed immediately on reserve.
Duration
Student permissions are removed after grade submission. You will still have access to your pages, however. Your pages will be deleted when your name is no longer included in the Faculty and Staff Directory. All PDFs created by library staff will be deleted from our e-reserves machine after grade submission.
Other
Electronic full-text articles from our subscription databases must contain a prefix to allow for off campus access. This prefix is provided during training.
