Off-Campus Database Sign-In Instructions

The Library has improved access to the research databases to which we subscribe. You do not need separate IDs and passwords if you use the databases through the LPC Library Homepage. You may use your W-ID and personal password, described below.

W-ID and Password through the LPC Library Homepage

Use your W number and your personal password. (This password is not the same as your Blackboard Distance Education pin. Read the instructions carefuly) You will only need to be authenticated with your W number and password once during each Internet session. However, if you close the browser and then return to the LPC Library Homepage, you will need to enter your W-ID and password again.

W-ID and Pin

Your user ID is the "W" number, which was issued to you by the College. You can find your "W" number on CLASS Web.*

Your PIN consists of:

• the first two letters of your first name
• the first two letters of your last name
• the last two numbers of your "W" number.
• example: John Smith with the W number W11122233 would use the PIN josm33

*HOW TO GET YOUR LPC "W" NUMBER ID
