Link to Your Reserve List from ANGEL

Both faculty and students must be registered with the Library to access reserves through ANGEL

Only the instructor listed with the registrar can activate the reserves link in ANGEL

To create your reserves link

  1. Place your materials on reserve with the Library
  2. Activate your ANGEL course
  3. Confirm that your reserves are available by checking your list in the Cat
  4. Activate your reserves link in ANGEL

Select the Resources tab
Under Penn State Library Tools, select Library Reserves
Select Activate to create the link
Select Preview Activated Link to ensure that the link is correct

Repeat this process for each section of any course with multiple sections

You will only need to activate your course and reserves link once each semester. Reserves added to your list after you have activated your ANGEL reserves link will automatically be available through the ANGEL link after processing is complete

Problems activating your reserve link? - Contact angel_reserv@psulias.psu.edu. Please include your Name, Access ID and Course Number

Common Problem - Instructor ID

Occasionally, a reserve link will fail because of incorrect information in the Instructor ID field in the course General Settings. To correct, go the the Manage tab and click on General Course Settings for your course section.
The Instructor ID field should contain your Access User ID (ex. ABC123), not your nine-digit PSU ID or your complete email address.
