New Password to Get into Databases and Look Upo Your Record

As of June 3, 2010 there is now a new way to get into our databases and to look up your record (to renew books, etc.) in the Library Catalog.

When logging into databases off campus there is now a new password.

The username is still your W ID number and it must begin with a capital W. If you do not know your W ID number, look up your record on Class-Web: https://bw6.clpccd.cc.ca.us/pls/OWA_PROD/twbkwbis.P_WWWLogin

After logging in, the first item listed will be what is my W ID?

The password is the following:

The first TWO letters of your first name, the first TWO letters of your last name, and the LAST FOUR DIGITS of your W ID number.

For example, if your name is Jane Chabot and your W ID number is W98765432

It would be this:

Username: W98765432
Password: jach5432

To look at your patron record in the Library Catalog go to:

http://chla.sirsi.net/uhtbin/cgisirsi/x/CHABOT/0/1/488/X/BLASTOFF

Where it says PIN be sure to type in the password as listed above.

While the password is the same as the default password to Blackboard, it is NOT the same password as getting into Class-Web or The Zone.
