Winter Quarter 2025 - For Faculty/Instructors
Winter Quarter is soon approaching and we wanted to take this opportunity to let you know how the UCI Libraries can assist with your course materials.
The general deadline for Winter Quarter is Monday, December 2nd. We are happy to accept requests submitted any time after the deadline, but we cannot guarantee materials will be ready for your students at the start of the quarter if a request is submitted late.
