Frequently Asked Questions

Passwords have been added to your library catalog account as an added level of security to protect your privacy. The first time you attempt to log in to the catalog, you will need to reset your password to a password of your choice. We encourage all library patrons to select a password or passphrase that consists of upper- and lower-case letters, numbers, and symbols.

This Impacts:

• CCU physical books
• Overdrive resources
• Requesting items through Prospector
• DVDs and CDs
• Ebooks through Libby

Does Not Impact:

• CCU Brightspace passwords
• CCU Connect passwords
• Database passwords such as EBSCO, ProQuest, Gale, etc.
