The library will place material on reserve for faculty in the Faculty of Health Sciences. Learn more about borrowing from the library’s reserve collection.

Reading lists for all FHS courses are needed to build the collection and are required if the material is to be put on reserve. Please contact the Health Sciences Library for more information.
