When attempting to access a library resource you may see a screen similar to the following:

BC students, faculty and staff:

Your browerd ID number is your student ID# or PID# found on your BC Photo ID card. For example, the login for Sammy Seahawk, ID# S12345678 would be: S12345678

As long as you do not close your internet browser, your login will stay active and you should not have to re-enter the numbers.

What if I get an error message while logging in?
