2. Click on Sign In next to Your library account in the upper right.
3. Click on Forgot Password.
4. Enter your library barcode number (use an upper case D) in the User Name box.
5. Click on Request Password.
6. You will receive an email with a link. Follow this link to the page where you will input your new password.
7. Enter your barcode number once again and choose, then confirm, a password of your choice (password must contain at least one number).
8. Click Change Password. The process is now complete.

Interlibrary Loans at No Charge for Student Research!

Effective immediately, the Lamar Soutter Library will absorb all costs, including copyright fees, for UMMS students' interlibrary loan requests that support their study or research at UMMS. The interlibrary loan service should be used to obtain items not owned by the library. Please check to see if the library owns the title before placing the request. If you request an article already owned by the library, the request will be processed and the article sent to you for an $11.00 fee. Questions? Contact Vivian Okyere at 508-856-2080.
