Change to Database Login

As of April 10, the login procedure for accessing library databases from off campus has changed. Your library barcode is no longer the login for databases. To log into library databases from off campus, you must use your SMU username and password. This is the same username and password that you use to log into WebTools, Blackboard, WebMail, and on-campus computers. If you have questions about the username/password login, contact the IT Helpdesk at 1-800-372-8176, ext. 7800 or contact the Library at 612-728-5108.

Important Notice about Library Databases

We are in the process of updating the off-campus login for library databases. Currently, you enter your library barcode number to access databases. After April 10, you will be prompted to enter your SMU username and password when you log into databases. You should use the same username and password that you use to log into WebTools, Blackboard, and on-campus computers. If you have any difficulties, please send an email to tc-library@smumn.edu or call us at 612-728-5108. Thank you for your patience during this transition.
