For Faculty

Yeshiva University Libraries' mission is to nurture excellence in pursuit of the liberal arts and sciences, support professional education, promote faculty scholarship, and advance the university as a center for Jewish studies. The libraries will achieve this through commitment to service, accessible collections, comprehensive information resources, engaging programs, and an inviting, functional, and flexible physical environment.

• Librarians are available to faculty, staff and students for individual consultations. 
• Librarians will create a customized research guide for your course. 
• Requests for assistance. 

Librarians offer classes that teach students research techniques; how to identify, locate and evaluate sources and do course-related research. Classes are designed in consultation with faculty members and are generally most effective when tied to specific assignments.

To request a Library class please fill out the following: Library Instruction Request Form.

We strongly encourage you to choose eReserves service at this time. Our eReserves platform integrates seamlessly with your Canvas course page. For articles and book chapters, we encourage you to see if the full text is available electronically from a library-owned resource. If you have any questions and concerns regarding eReserves service, please contact Stephanie Gross, Electronic Reserves Librarian, gross@yu.edu.

Reserves are readings and other materials that faculty members and instructors wish to make available to their students, either in hardcopy or electronically.

• Required / suggested readings
• Supplemental materials such as media, study guides, old exams, etc.
