Your patron record contains a list of books you have checked out and their due dates, along with any items you have placed holds on. It also allows you to renew books or cancel holds without even having to come into the library. Conveniently, you can view you patron record from any computer with an internet connection, via the OPAC:

Patron Record Login Screen
  • From the OPAC start screen, click "Account Login"
  • When prompted, login with your Simmons username and password

Once you have logged in, you will see your name and links to view items you have checked out or requested. For information on loan periods and limits on renewals, visit the Library Services page.

Special workshops are available for GSLIS students each semester, which cover more advanced features, such as setting up RSS feeds for new book notification or text message citations. For more information, visit the GSLIS Collection Workshops and Tours page.
