Creating an account

Procedure for Continuing Education Students 

Students registered in the new system will be issued a different, non MDConnect number that contains a letter (for example X012345) and thus temporarily will not be in Alma and will not be able to access any Library Services that uses OpenAthens Authentication. 


Create an Account 


  • Students in the new system will manage and create their accounts here instead: 
  • MDC ID Cards will eventually be issued with the new ID number. Once they are, I will release and update to the MDCard Service for Card Readers.

Checking out Materials 


  • Write down the student’s information and the item’s information
    • Name, Student Number, Barcode or PC number, Borrowing Date
  • Reach out to Angel Hernandez and he will manually check out the item to the student.

Additional Information 


Please note that the following services are not affected by these changes:

  • We may still assist with resetting student passwords using this page (the only difference is that a DOB is no longer required for these students that have the new ID number starting with an X): 
  • Managers and supervisors will still have the ability to manually reset a student account using the following link (as normal):
  • Staff will need to keep using the online form below to report Continuing Education Students visiting Learning Resources, since they will still not be in EAB:
