Login Options

The following login options are available to Nebraska residents wishing to access the NebraskAccess database resources:

  1. NebraskAccess Password - Nebraska residents may request a single NebraskAccess Password from their public, academic, or K12 school library.  When users login to the site using their NebraskAccess Password, they will be authenticated to access all databases available to their library.  They will no longer be required to login to each database service using a different username and password.  To maintain security NebraskAccess Passwords will be changed two times a year, on October 1 and April 1.  To learn more about the NebraskAccess Password option, view NebraskAccess Password FAQs.
     
  1. Nebraska Driver's License or State Identification Number - Nebraska residents may also login to NebraskAccess using a Nebraska Driver's License or State Identification Number.  Driver's license numbers will only be used to verify that the person logging in is a Nebraska resident; they will not be retained for personal identification purposes, nor will they be used to track individuals' usage of the resources.   If you experience problems logging in with your Nebraska Driver's License or State Identification Number, here are a few tips:
  • Make sure you entered all letters and numbers.
  • Make sure you didn't include any spaces.
  • Make sure you didn't mix up the letter O with the number 0.
  • Case doesn't matter; you can enter either uppercase or lowercase letters.

Please note that due to licensing restrictions we are unable to provide access to the eLibrary full-text database via the driver's license / state identification number login method. 
 

  1. IP access from computers at your library or K12 school - If you are using a computer at your library or K12 school, you may be able to login to NebraskAccess automatically by clicking on the Library or School K12 icons on the NebraskAccess home page.  This authentication method will only work if your library/school has static IP addresses, and your library/school static IP addresses are on file with NebraskAccess.   If IP access is working, you should be able to click on the Library or School K12 icon and then get directly into the databases without being prompted for usernames and passwords. If after clicking on the Library or School K12 icon you get prompted for a username/password when you try to access an individual NebraskAccess database, it means IP access is not available from the computer you're using.  Questions about the availability of IP access at your library or school should be directed to your librarian or media specialist.
