"The letters have apparently
worked ... about a dozen textbooks
have trickled into the reserve, and we

Dr. Fred Heath, dean and director of
Evans Library.
Heath said the reserve will be lo
cated on the second floor of Evans,
jwhere the texts will be guarded
carefully.
"Students will check in their back
packs before entering the reserve. Ex
act plans are still under consideration,
such as how students will check out a
text and for how long. Some specula

hour, students can Xerox pages, take
notes or just read," Heath said.
"The textbook reserve is a good
idea. 1 would use it on certain days
when I didn't want to have to carry
around a heavy text," said Shelley
Wolverton, a Memorial Student Cen
ter Bookstore worker and a senior
management major. "I believe stu
dents will see this upcoming project
the same way I do — beneficial, but
not to be used in lieu of actually buy
ing textbooks.
"In some classes, such as kinesiol-
ogy, you really don't need to buy the
book. The reserve would be an appro
priate way to study before the test in
those classes," Wolverton said. "Book
stores probably will see no direct ef
fect of the opening of the reserve
room, because most students realize
owning a personal copy is more re
sponsible, but it is a convenient back
up plan," she said.
