A new course reserve management system is available to UBC instructors and students.
This system, launched by UBC Library in collaboration with the Centre for Teaching, Learning and Technology and UBC IT, is a portal to all course reserves on a secure, campus-wide basis. It is available through Connect, UBC’s new learning management system. Old course reserves request forms will soon be retired in favour of the new system, which provides many benefits.
