How to Log In to Access the Library's Online Resources
Current students, faculty, and staff at TAMU-CC can access the library's online databases from anywhere they have an Internet connection. When you are off campus, you will need to log in with your TAMU-CC username and password in order to gain access to the library databases.
- For students, use your IslandID and password. This is the same username and password combination you use to log in to Canvas.
- For faculty and staff, use your network ID and password to gain access to our online resources off campus.
Still Having Trouble Logging In?
- If the resource you are trying to access asks you for a username and password other than your TAMU-CC login (or that asks you to pay for an article), you might be visiting a publisher's website without first going through the University Library's website. If you have a specific article you wish to access in full-text, see if we have access to it by using our Find a Specific Journal Tool.
- Some library databases offer free personal accounts in order to save search strategies, articles, or books. These accounts require a unique login and password but are separate from your TAMU-CC login credentials.
- Check out our databases alerts page in case there is a known issue about the database you are trying to access.
- If you are a current student, faculty, or staff member and are having issues logging in, please contact Information Technology Services (ITS) to reset your password or use their Password Reset Tool.
