Introduction
As of January 1, 2011, UFV is continuing its relationship with Access Copyright, but has also adopted the recommendations of the AUCC legal counsel regarding Fair Dealing (sections 29 and 29.2 of the Copyright Act). In order to ensure that everyone is aware of what this means, instructors will be required to provide written acknowledgement of copyright compliance when placing items on reserve (see instructions, below).
For more information on these changes, please refer to the AUCC recommenations. Questions or concerns about these policies may be directed to Colleen Bell (local 4396 or colleen.bell@ufv.ca) or Kim Isaac (local 4696 or kim.isaac@ufv.ca).
Course reserves are materials selected by instructors as required or supplementary readings items which instructors would like students to access and share in a timely fashion. They may be from the library collection, or brought in by instructors, and include books, periodical articles, answer keys, lecture notes, maps, videos and more. The library will also create electronic course reserves for online articles, PDF files of instructor-authored material, or websites. Course reserves are listed in the UFV Library Catalogue by instructor's name, and course number. Physical items are kept in a secure location and have short loan periods and high overdue fines.
The UFV Library's Course Reserves service operates under Fair Dealing (sections 29 and 29.2 of the Copyright Act), as interpreted by the legal counsel for the Association of Universities and Colleges of Canada (AUCC).

The library will create a course reserve record with a persistent link to the specific article. Links will work from home by directing students to our proxy server.
- For web documents in the public domain, provide the title of the website or document and the URL. The library will create a course reserve record that links to the web document.
- Links to e-reserves will become dormant and no longer show in the catalogue at the end of the semester.
E-Reserves for Instructor-Authored Materials

- E-Reserves will become dormant and no longer show in the catalogue at the end of the semester.
- Students must show their UFV ID card to sign out reserves, even if they are only making copies.
- Course reserves are listed in the UFV Library Catalogue by instructor's name, and course number. Please have the course number and title of the item available when you make your request.
- Because of the short loan periods, course reserves will not usually be transferred between campuses for use.
- Course reserves may not be placed on hold or renewed.
Instructors may choose from the following loan periods:
| Loan Period |
Overdue Fine |
2 Hour, 4 hour
|
$1.00/hour |
| 1 day, 2 day, 3 day, or 7 day |

Instructors may also restrict 2-hour and 4-hour loan materials to in-library use only.
