FCCS1100 - Mines Fall 2011: Password/PIN

From the  Library homepage, click on the link labeled "Get the GALILEO Password" (located under the "Find Articles" tab). Type in your 9-digit institution ID number (#9000), your PIN number (which you have created), your last name, and click "Login to My Account." 

The current GALILEO password will be displayed. Please note: The GALILEO password changes every semester.

Why do you need a PIN?  In an effort to provide more security in accessing your account online, the use of a PIN has been implemented.  Since the user determines the PIN, this helps insure the prevention of unauthorized access to your GIL account.

What can your PIN do for you? Use your PIN to log into your account to obtain the following information:

• The GALILEO password.
• Viewing the list of items you have checked out.
• Renewing materials online.
• Making a materials request.
• Reviewing the status of requested items.

How do I get my PIN? From the "My Account" screen:

• Enter your GHC ID number (9000#).
• Enter your last name.
• Click on the "Get My PIN" link (bottom) and a temporary PIN will be immediately emailed to your Georgia Highlands acct.
• Once you have received your temporary PIN, log back into your account and re-enter your information.
• Remember to change your PIN! Click on the "Change PIN" button, located directly under your name & address in your patron account.       
  

                                                                                                                                                           What if you forget your PIN? You can use the "Get My PIN" link on the login screen to have it emailed to your GHC student email address.
