Coming Soon: Even More Privacy and Security for Your Account
Would you like more privacy options in your Library account? With our new catalog and accounts system, you'll get more security for your account, and be able to create a personal username for your Library holds slips. With our new system, you can create a personal username in your online account: - Your username will be your alias on hold slips
- You will log into your account with your username and your PIN (Personal Identification Number)*
- This option creates a bit of extra privacy for your account, which some of our customers have requested.
If you don't choose a username:
- Your real name will continue to appear on your hold slips
- You will log into your account using your library card number and a PIN (Personal Identification Number)*
*What's this about a PIN? As an upgrade in account security, each Library user will create a 4-digit PIN code, as their new account password.
- You'll set up your pin the first time you use your account.
- You'll be able to change your PIN code any time you want
- Library staff won't know what it is
Specific instructions will be available once the new system is up and running, and staff will be on hand to assist you in getting started.
Want to know more about your privacy at the Library? Our privacy policy - recently reviewed with an eye on the new system's features - can be found on our web site.
