UNH Library Course Reserves

What is Mediated Retrieval?

Mediated Retrieval is a service offered by all UNH Libraries. We can not place items on reserve that are not for specific courses, but we can still help you with this request!

If you have an item you need help providing access to for multiple people, let us know. The UNH Library is able to assist with this by circulating these items on your behalf, from our service desks. We will allow users to borrow your item(s) for timeframe(s) you select. Every 6 months, we'll assess how it's going - are your item(s) being used? how much/little? has your goal been met? In these 6 months, if there is little to no use, your item(s) will be returned to you.

WHO MAY USE THIS SERVICE? Any USNH Faculty, Staff or Graduate Student with justifiable need for service.
