Accessing E-Resources

  • Firstly you need to log in to Search+:

You can do that at the top right hand side:

Catalogue login screen
Koha login screen


Use your college ID, it's on your badge, and your password should be the same as you computer password.



If you have problems logging in use:

“Forgot your password?”.



  • When you’ve found a resource click “Full Text”, or “ebook Full Text” or “Read online”


or

  • If you are in college you now see your ebook, if you are outside (or using data) you should see this login:


Use your college email E.g.

IP12345@my.leedscitycollege.ac.uk

Or

B12345678@my.leedscitycollege.ac.uk


And the same password that you use for the college email, computers or chromebooks.


  • WHAT TO DO IF THE RESOURCE asks for A LOGIN?

Sometimes it's not possible to arrange for a resource to automatically recognise you as one of our learners.

In this case you'll have to look for a place to log in and then find an 'Institutional login', sometimes referred to as a 'Shibboleth login'.

From there you will have to find 'Leeds City College' in their list of institutions, occasionally you might be asked for your group, region or federation first, in which case choose UK HIgher Education.

From there you will need to log in with your college email details as above.
