Search

You can search the catalogue without logging in. Enter your search words in the box to the right, then click the Search button.

Keyword searches will look for your search words in any part of the item record. Use the pulldown menu to limit your search to Title, Author, Subject or Series.

Your Account

To use other features of the catalogue, you will have to log in. Click the "My Account" button at the right of the screen, or the My Account or Login labels on the left when you are on any catalogue page.

You will need to login to:

• See a list of items you have checked out.

• Renew some or all of these items.

• List the items you have on hold, review their current status, or cancel a hold.

• Place a hold (reserve) on an item. (You can login after clicking Place Hold)

• Check for fines on any late or lost items.

First login

PLEASE ENABLE COOKIES!  You will not be able to login, if cookies are not enabled.

Your user name is your library card number. (Do not include the BOR prefix if there is one on your card.)

Your temporary password is the last 4 numbers of your phone number, or the 4 digit number you received with your new library card. You will be instructed to change this when you first log in.

Your new password can be anything you decide within these guidelines:

• at least seven characters (letters and numbers only)

• at least one number

• at least one letter

Enter your old (four digit) password in the first box.

Enter your new password in the second box.

Enter your new password again in the third box. (This step is used to catch mistypings of the new password.)

Click Update password.

You will be returned to the login page after updating a password, and must then log in again using the new password that you set.

NOTE: If you get a security warning message about "secure and nonsecure items," you need to choose to display "nonsecure" items.  Click "Yes" if you are using Internet Explorer 7, and "No" if you are using Internet Explorer 8.

For more information see:  Logging into your library account with Internet Explorer 7 or with Internet Explorer 8.

Please call the library at 250-537-4666 if you have any problems, or ask to be walked through the login process the next time you are in the library.

Download a brief version of these instructions.

Regular logins

For logins after the first, the process is much shorter.

Enter your library card number (without the BOR prefix if your card includes one) or your User Name (if you have set one different from your card number).

Enter your password (the one you have set).

Click Login.

Done. :-)
