ACCESS is via account in LibApps
What is LibApps?
LibApps is an easy way to log into - and move between - Springshare products using a single username & password. Once your local administrator for LibGuides, LibAnswers, LibCal, etc. creates an account for you in these individual apps, you can use this LibApps username/password to login and use the blue LibApps menu to jump between the apps.
