I'm travelling to Rome in July (had no choice on dates), and plan on buying a Roma Pass. I've read that Roma Pass holders can visit the Collosseum for free (as one of the museum options), however you still need to make a" time reservation", paying only the $2 handling fee. On Coopculture, I see no option for a free entrance. There is a free entrance option for young children and tour guides, but nothing that references Roma Pass holders. Could someone please clarify this for me? Thanks in advance.

Yes, you must now make a timed-entry reservation with the Roma Pass.
Read 7.1 under "Reservations" on the Roma Pass FAQ page:
http://www.romapass.it/en/FAQ/
On the Coopculture website, there is an option for purchasing timed-entry reservations (2.00€) if intending to use the pass. Do it through this page:
After you click "Details" on that page, you'll need to choose a date and time slot that's still available. You can choose just the 2.00€ option if choosing to buy your pass elsewhere in Rome or the 48 or 72-hour options if purchasing through the coopculture site.
