Once you create a username, you can login using that instead of your library card number.

The new catalog has some great social features for connecting with other readers. However, not everyone wants to participate, and some would rather keep their reading activities private. The good news is you have control over what gets shared with others. To view and manage your privacy settings:

See Privacy Settings help page in the catalog for more details.

Unfortunately BiblioCommons cannot import lists from our current catalog, nor can it import or access the borrowing history in our current catalog. Our current catalog, however, will not be going away. If your borrowing history is currently enabled, it will continue to keep track of items you check out, and can be accessed by signing into your account.
