In English, "term" has many different meanings, evidenced here :
https://www.merriam-webster.com/dictionary/term

In French, we have different words for these, and the case that mainly
interests me here is 

1 : a word or expression that has a precise meaning in some uses or is peculiar
to a science, art, profession, or subject

(for example "search term", "broader term", etc.)

vs

3 : division in a school year during which instruction is regularly given to
students

(i.e. semester)

in the case of course reserves. 

For example, 

#: koha-tmpl/opac-tmpl/bootstrap/en/modules/opac-course-reserves.tt:43
#: koha-tmpl/opac-tmpl/bootstrap/en/modules/opac-tags.tt:139
#: koha-tmpl/opac-tmpl/bootstrap/en/includes/opac-authorities.inc:14
#, c-format
msgid "Term"
msgstr "Terme"

Here, there are instances of the word in authorities and tags, which presumably
have the first meaning. And there is one instance in course reserves where is
means semester.

I propose to disambiguate the term "term" specifically for course reserves,
where the meaning is "semester".
