How do I login? I have never logged in before.

You need a username and password:

  • Username: your student ID number

  • Password: your first password is the first initial of your first name, followed by your full date of birth
    Example: John Smith born 14 August 1980, therefore his password is j14081980

Before you start using the library databases, you must change your password. Instructions for changing your password are outlined below.
