your request arrives in the library.
By specifying a Username and Password of your choosing, you will have secure access to information about your requests. You will also be able to review
the list of items you have requested in the past.
About your Username and Password

Password

ILLiad will encrypt your password, so it will remain secure. Only you will know your password.
