Reserve and E-Reserve Services
What is Reserve?
The reserve service allows for temporarily reserving necessary printed materials for specific courses designated by our faculty members. These materials are available for short-term use by students at the circulation desk.
What is E-Reserve?
The e-reserve service provides 24/7 access to digital course materials through the Bilkent campus network. Due to copyright restrictions, these materials are only accessible through the campus network.
For any questions about the Reserve and E-Reserve Services, please email e-reserve@bilkent.edu.tr.
