On the WorldCat Discovery Page, there is a gray bar with a "Chat with a librarian" link. Clicking that link brings up a pop-up window with a chat you can use to ask for assistance.

The library's Help page also has other options for contacting the library for assistance.

The purpose of this guide is to provide you with a starting point for your research.

OFF-CAMPUS ACCESS

After selecting a resource off campus you will be asked for your Username and Password (this will authenticate you for a search session).

1. Username is the first 4 characters of your last name plus the last 4 digits of your Campus Wide I.D. (CWID) number. If your last name is 3 characters long or less, just use those letters. If your name has a special character, such as an apostrophe or space, omit the special character and just use the letters. See the examples below: 
   
   Jones, John / 123456789 à jone6789
   Lee, Kelly / 123456789 à Lee6789
   O'Brian, Carol / 123456789 à OBri6789

   Password is your CWID number (example: 123456789). If the password contains letters, all letters must be capitalized.

    

2. Lastly, the authentication process uses "cookies" to remember that you are logged in for that session only. Once you close the browser, your session will terminate. It will be necessary to log in for each session.
