To expedite this process, provide the item you wish to be placed on reserve as well as the name of the course or seminar for which it is to be placed on reserve, and any restrictions on use. Copyright assistance information can be found at Copyright and Fair Use at UC Libraries​ and at Copyright FAQ. We must have copyright permission for third-party copied materials. If it is an item from the Law Library’s collection, please give your liaison or a Lisa Britt Wernke a citation for the item as well as the name of the course or seminar, and any restrictions on use.

The Law Library maintains a few past or sample exams for student use on a restricted TWEN site. Students frequently ask for old exams to help them study. Faculty members decide whether or not to make those exams available to the Library. To make exams available, please contact your liaison or Susan Boland, susan.boland@uc.edu, at (513) 556-1332.
