To log in to Library services when prompted, your username and password are as follows:
Username: Student number e.g. N0012345678
Password: Regular IADT password, such as the one you use for email, BlackBoard, etc.
Notes:
Don't enter your email address, just your student number!
For staff, use your name and initial, e.g. smithj
1. The #1 reason you might be having trouble logging in is because you have saved your library password to your browser.
By doing this from the very first time you get your new password, you shouldn't have issues logging in again in the future.
2. Another fix is to make sure you are not putting your email as the username, it is just your student number/staff name.
3. You may just need your password reset even if you haven't saved it in your browser. To do this, email support@iadt.ie. Give your name, student number and a mobile phone number they can text you with.
Please note that Library staff cannot reset your password, only ICT Services can do this.
