E-RES (Electronic Reserves):
    E-Res is an electronic reserves software program that enables students to electronically access articles, book chapters and other documents which faculty have placed on Course Reserves as supplemental course readings. Printed documents are scanned and stored on a server. Students can then access assigned reserve readings from any computer connected to the Internet, without having to come into the Library. Any number of students can access the same reserve item at the same time. It is necessary to have Adobe Acrobat Reader on your PC to access the files.

All faculty are invited to participate in the E-Res program. If you are interested in using E-Res, just notify Juli Boggs or Chris Praul when you deliver reserve materials to the Circulation Desk. For more information, visit the E-Res web page at: http://www.susqu.edu/library/eres/

Access limited to Susquehanna University students, faculty and staff. S.U. email log-in required for access.
