First Time User Registration for Interlibrary Loan

First-time ILLiad users must register in order to access the database. Registration provides the following benefits:

  • you will not have to supply personal information again when making future requests;
  • your e-mail and regular mail addresses are placed on file with Interlibrary Loan enabling us to promptly communicate with you; and
  • specifying a unique username and password will provide secure access to information about current and past ILL requests.

About your Username and Password

During registration, you will be asked to choose a Username and Password. You will use this Username and Password when logging on to the ILLiad system in the future. Given their importance, you may wish to make a note of your user name and password and retain them in a safe location. Here are a few tips:

user name: choose anything you like, such as your name, abbreviations, or an alphanumeric code;
password: Choose anything you like, but we recommend that you follow good security practice and choose a password that is different from those you use to access other systems. ILLiad will encrypt your password, so it will remain secure. Only you will know your password.
