Uses of My Account

My Account offers several options that can enhance your use of library resources. They include:

  • viewing the materials you have currently checked out
  • renewing materials if renewal limits have not been reached (two renewals allowed for books, one renewal for AV items)
  • viewing your reading history (materials you have checked out in the past)
  • saving search formulas that are helpful for your research
  • saving favorite titles and bibliographic information by your chosen topics
  • modifying your Password (Guest User groups only)

Your Reading History in My Account tracks the books and materials that you have checke out from Cook and VanWylen Libraries. You must ‘opt in’ in order for it to function. This can be done by going to Reading History  in My Account. Reading History can be especially helpful in writing a bibliography or in remembering a book that has been helpful in research.

Apply for An Account

Alumni of Western Theological Seminary, Local Clergy and others may use the Cook Library.

If you desire to check physical materials out from the library, you will need to have an account.  You may start the process here.
