How do I set up my library account?
Overview:
To complete set up of your account, you will need to register your email address with the library. Then you will need to create a 4-8-digit PIN of your choice, which will allow you to unlock all of Kenrick's library resources. The combination of your email address and your PIN will allow you to:
- Request print books from Kenrick's library.
- Request print books and other items from other MOBIUS libraries.
- Access Kenrick's online resources from off-campus.
- Check your library account and renew books.
Steps:
1. Make sure you have registered an email address with the library. If you are a current affiliate of either Kenrick-Glennon Seminary or the Augustine Institute, this has already been done for you. Otherwise, please write to library@kenrick.edu.
2. In order to create a PIN, click on this link: https://oaconnector.ebsco-gss.net/pinreset.php?organization=s9605106folio. You will be taken to a prompt to enter your email address.
- Enter the email address you have on file with the library in lowercase letters.
- For Kenrick patrons, that will typically mean your kenrick.edu email address.
- For Augustine Institute patrons, that will mean the email address the Institute has on file for you.
- If you are unsure whether your email address is on file with the library or which email address it is, please ask! Contact the library at library@kenrick.edu.
- If you do not have an email address on file or if you enter it incorrectly, you will see an error message.
3. After a few minutes, you will receive an email with a link (subject: "Library Pin Reset Link"). Click on this link to set the PIN you have chosen for yourself:
4. When you click on the link, you will be taken to a prompt that will ask you to enter your new PIN and then confirm it:
- Enter the PIN you have chosen and you should be set! Now you can log into the catalog or access e-resources from off-campus!
