Your Library Account

You can use Polaris PowerPAC to create a library account, view and update your library account details, change your password, maintain and view a reading history, check your requests for materials, view or renew items you have checked out, and check fines and fees.

Note:
The policies of the library where you are registered (your "home" library) determine what patron account functions are available to you.

To work with your account online, you must log in to establish your identity because the information about your account is private. You need your patron barcode (library card number) and a password to log in. Refer to "Logging In and Out" for detailed instructions about logging in.

This unit covers the following topics:

• "Setting Up a New Patron Account"
• "Setting Up a Password for an Old Account"
• "Reviewing Personal Information"
• "Managing Your Requests"
• "Viewing and Renewing Items Out"
• "Viewing Your Reading History"
• "Checking Fines and Fees"
