How to Get an ID and Password

You can get an ID/Password from your library.

When you are at most member institutions, you will not need to worry about an ID and password to access the databases because where ever possible we have used IP addresses for authentication.

For those who are dial-up Internet access, we have IDs and passwords for access to the subscripition databases. The id/password works only with the WebZ interface when you choose Find Books, Articles and More from the main KYVL page, or when you access the databases from one of the K12 Schools pages or the Kids pages.

Password changes occur twice a year, 15 December and 1 July. After a password change, the previous password will continue to work for 45 days.
