Signing in to the OPAC Signing in to the OPAC

Patrons can launch your library’s OPAC by entering the Web address in their browser’s address bar, clicking a
link on your library’s Web site, or using a desktop shortcut on a library workstation.

In order to perform tasks that require the OPAC to identify you (such as accessing your saved Bookbag, using
My Account, or reserving items), you must
sign in. To do so:

1. Click the my account link that appears on the upper bar of most pages in the OPAC.
2. Type your login name or patron barcode in the Login Name/Barcode box.
3. In the Password box, type your password.
4. Click Sign In.

Note: When finished with your session, click Sign Out or Reset
to ensure your privacy.

Note: Some features require patrons to have access privileges,
which are granted in the OPAC Access tab of the Group Editor.
