BUSINESS INFORMATION CENTER

Policies

Faculty place items on reserve in several different ways. Electronic materials may be placed on reserve through Fondren Library and are displayed on the PONI library catalog system. Books, reports, and other printed materials are on the reserve shelf in the BIC and may be located by consulting the PONI Catalog. Faculty may also attach course materials to their individual faculty/course web pages on the Cox website.

Links within the BIC website are selected to maximize usefulness to students and faculty. Suggestion for new links are always welcome provided they fit the selection criteria. Links deep into many sites are not possible due to technical restrictions.
