Faculty Services

For Faculty:

• The library purchases a limited number of textbooks for its “Textbooks on Reserve” service, and it encourages you to participate by placing a personal copy of your textbook on reserve at the Circulation Desk for your students to use. At the end of the semester(s), your textbook can be returned to you or left for use during future semsters. For more information, contact library circulation at X1461 or libcirc@ship.edu.

• Looking for an alternative to a traditional textbook? Library faculty are willing to assist you in identifying no-cost open educational resources to support your courses. You can speak to Aaron Dobbs, library department chair and scholarly communications librarian, at X1018 or awdobbs@ship.edu for more information.
