Visitor EID

• Why do I need to identify myself to log in to the Libraries' computers?
  
The Libraries must know who is using the network and must be assured that users are who they claim to be. Current UT Austin students, faculty and staff may use their individually-assigned UT EID (Electronic ID login and password) to access the network. For other users, an EID verified with a valid, government-issued photo ID is needed to grant access.
• How do I obtain an EID?
  
1. Create a UT EID at https://idmanager.its.utexas.edu/eid_self_help/. You may access this URL from any Library Catalog station. The easiest way to access this site is to click on this orange icon labeled EID Help at the bottom of the Library Catalog home page:




2. Take your new UT EID and password and your valid, government-issued photo ID to the PCL Courtesy Borrower Desk or other issuing locations (see below) to enable temporary network access.
3. Once temporary access is enabled for your UT EID, you may log in to any Libraries computer for one session up to one hour in duration each day. Your temporary access will last for 3 consecutive days. Temporary access can be renewed at the PCL Courtesy Borrower Desk or other issuing locations (see below).
