Hello and welcome everyone to a new academic year. For new students
this can be a daunting experience (though we have an *excellent* student
services department - if you are having any problems call into to see
Caitriona), not made any easier by the number of passwords that you have
to remember. Here follows a list of usernames and passwords that you
need.
Moodle, College PCs and checking your library account online.
To access these please enter your student number as your username and your student number as your password. If you are unsure what these are please contact IT or fill out their help form or do both. If you stop to think about, you'll probably realise that it's not
a good idea to have your student number as both your username and
password (it's a little like writing your PIN on your bank card), hence we strongly recommend that the first time that you login to a college PC, you change your password.
Student E-mail
Don't shoot the messenger here, okay? I'm cutting and pasting here:
To access your student email please enter your student number for
your username and your password is the first 2 digits of your date of
birth and your course code. Day of birth is in numerical format i.e. DOB 05th January insert 05 and the course code is as on your student card
When you log into your email it will ask you to change your password.
Any problems, contact the IT department as above.
Off-campus access to E-books and search results from the search box on the library home page
Use your student number and date of birth in format dd/mm/yyyy
Athens
If you want an Athens account, contact the
library to have one set up for you. You need to provide your student
number, course code and a valid email address. Within 24 hours of your
request, you should receive an email with account activation details.
Follow the instructions therein to activate your account. You get to set
your own password. Any problems, contact the library again.
