Your Library Login
You should use your regular University Login username (e.g. ab1 or abc101) and password to login to use the digital library, access e-resources or where required on this website. This is the same login used for e-mail, My.Anglia, the VLE and to access university PCs. The old “Library Login” (barcode and password) has been discontinued.
To use the Library's self-service machines you'll need to use a special password (as well as your student or staff ID card).
Students: Unless you agreed a different password on joining the library or have subsequently changed it, your self-service password is derived from the day and month of your date of birth. So, if your DOB is 17 August your password will be 1708. You can change your password at any time by logging in to the Library and selecting the "My Account". If you are a returning student your password should not have changed.
Staff: You will normally receive your password when you register with us. New staff need to register with the Library to obtain a password in person. Staff who have a query regarding their library barcode number/password should contact us in either online, by phone or in person.
Digital Library access for users in NHS and Government institutions
Some users may encounter problems accessing the Digital Library from places with "Secured" network access, e.g. Hospital and Government Networks. We provide a workaround for this but we don't guarantee that this works perfectly in all circumstances- you'll need your University Login details*
Please go to:
https://extranet.che.anglia.ac.uk
Please say " Yes" to any certificate warnings you get.You will then need to select "Digital Library" from the list and Login with your University Login to the Digital Library. You should then have full access to all our Digital Library resources as if you were on a standard unsecured network.
If for some reason you find that this won't work please contact us via our online enquiry service and describe what happened. Did an error pop up or get displayed on your screen? Did something else happen ? were you unable to get to or use a resource ? if so which one?
* This is the password that you use to log on to a university owned PC or student email inbox. Students on campus can also seek help at the library IT helpdesks, or via email to student-ithd@anglia.ac.uk. Staff should contact ISMS Customer Support on Ext 4357 or externally via 0845 196 4357.
