Online Access
You can also access your library account online via either the computers in the library or your own PC at home. The barcode on library card is your account Log-in; all you need is a password. Next time you're in a library, come to the desk with your library card and we'll issue you a password.
Using your Log-in and password you can review the items you have on loan, renew items and reserve items that you would like to borrow in the future. You can also view your borrowing history and update your personal details. If you forget your password at any time, just come back to the counter, with your card or other ID and we can reset it.
