Your library account enables off-campus access to library databases as well as tools for managing your checked-out items. The VPN provided by IT Services also enables library database access - we recommend it to anyone who uses them frequently!

Get started: Visit the library homepage and click "My Account" in the top right corner. Follow the instructions on the screen.

 Your Library Account login is your RISD email login.

• RISD Username: your RISD username (without @risd.edu)
• Password: your RISD email password
