Full Answer
The eReserves area is a folder within the library that contains access-controlled materials, such as documents with copyrights. eReserves are not available for organizations, and may only be available for courses.
The Library is used to post eReserves, electronic manuscripts, and other institution resources. It is fully integrated with Blackboard Learn, making the Library a powerful and flexible way to share and distribute materials.
Whether or not Blackboard will be used in a course, the faculty member must request the course in Blackboard in order to use eReserves. Click here to learn more about requesting a course in Blackboard with the Blackboard Faculty Tools (BFT).

Once your eReserves materials are posted by the library, you and your students can access the eReserves materials within your Blackboard course. You can share these instructions with your students to explain how to access eReserves.
You can make it easier for students to find and access eReserves by adding a link to your Course Content (in Ultra Course View) or on your course menu (in Original Course View). This is particularly important for Original Course View if you prefer to hide the Tools link on your course menu.
