Accessing Your Library System, How to Login

The first and most important step in being able to use your library system is being able to access and log into it. 

New Users

The first thing you need is your hosted system URL, this can be embedded into your school's website so that students can log in from home. If can also be pushed out across all devices using group policy.

Now that you have loaded your site, you will need to log in. If this is your first time with Reading Cloud, you will have received an email with an access link. Clicking this will automatically log you into management, you will then be prompted to set your administrator password. Once you have done so, please delete the email and do not use the link again, as it will wipe your password and you will have to do it all over again. 

Once you have access to management, ensure that a recovery email address is set for password resets. 

Password Resets

Should you forget and need to reset your password, the process is different depending on your system:

• Junior Classic
• Reading Cloud

Change of staff

If you are new to the librarian role, or you are leaving the school and a new member of staff will be taking over the role of managing the library, please ensure that a full handover is carried out. 

Access issues

There are a few error messages that could appear when attempting to login, such as an 'Error undefined' message, or a message saying that your site has expired. 

Please also ensure that you are not searching for your site via google or any other search engine, you must use your direct URL.
