Booking DVDs or videos for lectures (Academic staff only)
Films, DVDs, videos and other AV materials may be booked to screen in your lectures. You need to submit your request either through our online form, by email to reserve@curtin.edu.au, or in person at the Enquiries Desk on level 2 of the Robertson Library before the start of semester. The item you require will be held in our Reserve Collection.
Your request should include the author, title and publication date of the item, as well as your name, the unit name and number of the lecture. Please also include the dates that the item will be screened. We recommend that you book the item for two days either side of the screening date.
If the item isn't already held in our collection, we will purchase it for you, and if it is not likely to arrive in time for the screening date we will attempt to obtain it for you from another library.
Once we receive your request we will notify you when the item is in the Reserve Collection and the date you will need to loan the item. You need to come the Reserve Enquiry Desk on level 2 of Robertson library at the time we indicate. If someone else is to collect the item on your behalf, please let us know in your request.
Booking items on short notice
If you need an item to screen at short notice, that is, you haven't told us before the start of semester, we will attempt to accommodate your request but will need a minimum of 5 working days to process it. We can't guarantee the item will be available as it may be out on loan.
