How do I reserve a DVD for a class?
Answer
These instructions pertain specifically to faculty teaching in the U.S.A. We encourage all current Webster faculty teaching in the U.S. to place advance reservations for DVDs they wish to use in class.
To reserve a library DVD for classroom use
- Please reserve these materials as far ahead as possible (and no less than 2 weeks in advance).
- For short-term use, go to the library catalog and request the item.
- If needed for a longer period of time, request the material be added to in-house reserves.
To reserve a video for your classroom for use within 3 days or less (Main Campus only)
- Call us at 314-246-6952
- Provide the desired show dates.
- Be aware that due to the short notice, your video may not be available.
Loan policy
- DVDs circulate for 7 days.
- Renewals are dependent on the demand for the materials.
- Please return each item promptly because other Webster faculty may be waiting to use it next.
Shipping information for extended campuses
- All Webster faculty throughout the U.S.A. outside the St. Louis area are eligible to have DVDs shipped to their location from our collections.
- We send DVD via UPS (United Parcel Service) 3–4 day delivery service.
- We insure the contents of each package and include packaging materials and labels for return shipment.
- Contact us if your materials do not arrive or if there are any other delivery problems.
To recommend videos for the library collection
