You can search all available catalogues without logging in. In some catalogues, however, it is possible to create a user account. Among other things, this gives you the opportunity to save search results and the images in your collection basket.
To create a user account, click on "Login using credentials" on the welcome page and next on "Create account" in the new window. | |
Alternatively, you can click on the icon with the head in the top right-hand corner of the catalogue. From here you also get to a window where you can click on "Create account". | |
To create a user account, you must fill in the mandatory fields, accept the terms and conditions and click on "Create". You will then see a confirmation that an email has been sent to your email account for verification. | |
Now check your email account, open the email with the sender e-pics-alvaneu12ba@library.ethz.ch or e-pics-alvaneu12@library.ethz.ch. Validate your email address by clicking on the button "Validate" or by clicking on the link at the bottom or by typing it into the internet. | |
You will receive the following message, as shown in the image on the right. Click on "Back to Start". | |
You can now log in with your email address and password by clicking on "Login using credentials". Be aware: Only your email address can be used as "user name"! | |
If you forgot your password and the login does not work anymore, please click on "Reset password". | |
In the next step, enter your email address. Again, please note that the username must always be your email address. Then click on "Send". A window will appear confirming that an email has been sent to you for the next steps. | |
Please check your inbox and also the SPAM folder for an email with the sender e-pics-alvaneu12ba@library.ethz.ch. The email contains a button (blue) to reset the password. Alternatively, you can click on the link at the bottom or enter it into a browser. | |
You will be taken back to the E-Pics site and must enter the new password twice. Then click on "Send". | |
A message appears that your new password has been reset. Now click on "Back to Start". | |
You will be taken back to the welcome page, where you can log in as usual by clicking on "Login using credentials". |
