Flexible Access Controls

Use password protection and IP-restriction to limit access to specific courses or items. Automated visibility controls ensure that course content is only accessible when you want it to be.

Copyright Management

Communicate copyright with customizable copyright statements that appear at the bottom of every E-Reserves course so users are always aware of institutional policies. Tag e-reserve items with custom notes like 'Public Domain' or 'Permission Paid'.

Ensure library content is present inside LMS

Display Course Reserves Inside Courseware

Organize Reserves by Course or Instructor

To mimic the organization of course pages inside courseware tools, the E-Reserves content is organized and indexed by relevant course pages and instructors' last names.

LTI Connector for Courseware Linking

Our tools are LTI certified so embedding relevant reserves content inside course pages is a breeze. Students get access to reserve items right at the point of need.

Additional Access Controls

Optionally, further restrict access to reserve materials via course passwords, document passwords, or individual IP safelist controls.

You Love Statistics - it's ok, we love them too

Powerful Reporting & Statistics On Reserves Use

Our statistics reports provide a valuable insight into how reserves materials are being used, even down to an individual document level. Compare reserves usage from quarter to quarter, and provide tangible proof to faculty about the usage of reserve materials for their courses.

Our E-Reserves module is a cost-effective tool that makes it easy to upload documents and make them available inside courseware pages, too. We'd love to share more info, examples of real-world usage, and organize a demo for you and your colleagues.
