Reserve Material Policies

At the MSU-Great Falls Campus Library, there are books, copies of articles from periodicals, videotapes, and other materials that faculty members have reserved to support course work. Because these materials are in high demand, they may be used for limited amounts of time. The circulation period is determined by the instructor placing the item on reserve.

All materials on reserve are listed in the library catalog. To retrieve an item, find the OR number and bring it to the circulation desk.

  • A current MSU-GF Student ID is necessary to check out reserve materials.
    An MSU-GF student ID can be obtained from Student Services.
  • Reserve items check out for the amount of time set by the instructor. This time period is indicated on each item. Materials marked LIBRARY USE ONLY may not leave the library.
  • Checkouts are limited to 3 items per patron.
  • It is the responsibility of the borrower to return reserve material on time. Keeping a reserve item beyond the specified time may prevent other students from reading required material and is regarded as a serious academic offense. For this reason, fines for overdue reserve items are high:

    Fines for materials that circulate for 2 hours are $2.00 per hour/per item, up to a daily maximum of $14.00, until the item is returned.

    Fines for materials that circulate overnight or longer are $2.00 per day/per item, up to a daily maximum of $14.00, until the item is returned.

  • Renewing reserve materials is not allowed.
  • Borrowing privileges will be suspended if your library fines accrue to $25.00 and your bills will be transferred to the Business Office. At the end of each semester, all unpaid fines are sent to the Business Office. The Business Office will add the amount due to your student account and may withhold academic transcripts and other university services from you until the amount is paid in full.

If you have any questions or concerns, please contact the library staff at 406-771-4398 or call
