The Welch Library offers an eReserve system that provides a single link to access all the copyright-protected course material for all courses that a student is enrolled in. Students have to use their JHED login to access eReserves.
Students can get quick access to the course eReserves if faculty enable this feature in their CoursePlus site. Once enabled, students can then access the eReserves by clicking the link from the Resources tab in the course website.
