If you are not affiliated with the UO, or you do not have an Oregon Card, you'll need to request a patron account using our online registration form.

Once your registration has been accepted, you'll receive an email with a permanently assigned User ID and a temporary password (can change by accessing My Account/Personal Settings).

If you require assistance accessing your account (e.g., expired account), please contact our reference email. You can reset your password on your own if you remember your User ID or email address used to create your account.

To request materials in advance of a research trip, review the instructions on Requesting Materials.

Please read our guidelines for use of our materials before visiting the reading room.
