Accessing your Library Account

Access to all JKM Library resources, physical or electronic, is enabled using OpenAthens, our single-sign-on platform. This is the online equivalent of your library card.

 

To access your JKM Library account:

  1. First, click on the link to Primo, our online catalog
  2. In the upper right corner, click on "Log into my JKM/I-Share account"
  3. In the pop-up, choose "OpenAthens"

  4. When you see "Sign in with an OpenAthens account," enter your seminary email address (with the @lstc.edu, @go.mccormick.edu, or @mccormick.edu), and the password you have chosen. Email us at ihaveaquestion@jkmlibrary.org if you need a password reset.
  5. Back in Primo, your name should appear in the upper right corner. Click on it, and choose from the menu that appears.
  6. If you want to edit your information, including your address and preferred contact email, choose "Library Card," then "Personal Details." Any changes will not affect libraries with books already loaned to you, until the next time you borrow from them.
  7. If you want to see what books you have checked out, choose "My Loans." You can renew your books here.
  8. If you want to see what books you have requested, choose "My Requests." You can see the status of your JKM and I-Share requests, and cancel them if you want.

If you haven't received your welcome email, or if your OpenAthens login does not work for any reason, please email us at ihaveaquestion@jkmlibrary.org, and we will get you sorted out.
