Instructors, if you need materials for Course Reserves including books, articles, or movies, please submit the request here or you can start your Course Reading List using our new Course Reading List tool. Course Reserves provides Kent State faculty, students, and staff access to required and supplemental course readings and other materials while complying with copyright laws.

University Libraries can help instructors provide access to electronic and print course materials--books, videos, articles, and more--for Kent State students. We are transitioning to our new Course Reading List Tool. To get started creating a new Course Reading List for a course you are teaching, activate the Course Reading List option from your course navigational links in Canvas. In your Course Reading List, you can click "Add" and search for the items you want to use in your course. We have a Course Reading List Quick Start Guide you can access here.

New Course Reading List Tool Sessions for Instructors

We offered several live Teams sessions in which we demonstrated the new Course Reading List Tool. We will offer more training during the Fall semester. Check back for more sessions to be added. 

We have a Course Reading List Quick Start Guide available to help you get started.

If you need additional assistance, please submit any requests here. Please include the instructor’s name, class number, and complete bibliographic information so we can find the materials as quickly as possible.
