The My Account button on the library homepage allows you to check any one of three accounts:
To access your main library account and renew items:
A On the library homepage (umsl.edu/library), click the My Account button below the Discover@UMSL search box. Select My Account + Renew from the dropdown menu.
If prompted, log in using your regular University SSO ID and password. When you log in, you may see a screen asking you to agree to EBSCO’s Privacy Policy regarding personal accounts and how data will be used to provide library services. Certain services may not be available (such as personalized folders and requesting books) if you do not agree to the terms.
B On the next page, click the My Library Account link in the dark gray bar at the top of the results page. If you currently have books checked out, you can either click the My Loans link in the black bar directly above it, or you can select My Loans from the side navigation menu ( C ). From there, you can click the Renew link ( D ).
Your account will be accessible every time you search Discover@UMSL. If you’ve saved searches or search results, you’ll find them in the side navigation menu. For more information on the My Library Account feature, click the “?” next to your name at the top of the menu or visit the Saving Items & Searches page in this guide [PAGE LINK TO COME].
