Create an HSLS Account InstantlyHSLS has introduced a new, streamlined account registration process. You can now register for an account, and within minutes use the account to access library resources remotely or to use computers in the library. All you need to create an HSLS account is a valid Pitt or UPMC e-mail account. In general, this includes any e-mail account that ends in "pitt.edu" or "upmc.edu" (e.g., yourname@upmc.edu, or yourname@medschool.pitt.edu). After completing the brief online registration form, you will receive an e-mail at the address that you provided asking you to confirm your account. Once confirmed, your account will be active and you can begin using it to access library resources. Your full e-mail address (e.g., yourname@pitt.edu) will serve as your login name. Your HSLS account will remain valid for one year after confirming the account. Each year, you will receive a request by e-mail to reconfirm your account. Should you ever forget your password, you can instantly retrieve it to begin using your account again. To retrieve your password, click on the "Forgot Password?" link on any login page. Enter the e-mail address that you are using as your username, and your password will be sent to that account. While your existing HSLS or Pitt account will continue to work within the HSLS system, these accounts will be phased out during the next year. We encourage you to register for a new account now to avoid any loss of service. To register for an HSLS account, see <www.hsls.pitt.edu/services/account/>. |
