Your MyLOFT account can be created in two ways.
Created by Institute’s Library Team
- In cases where MyLOFT accounts are created by the Library team, you have to contact your library to have your account created.
- As soon as your account gets created, you will receive a welcome mail in the account of the email address associated with your library (if not found, check in Spam or Promotions folder).
- For an email-based login, you will find the Set Password option to set a password for your MyLOFT account. Use this password later for login.
Sign up by user
- In cases where users themselves have to sign up to create a MyLOFT account, open the mobile app
or WebApp.
- Select your institute from the list of options available.
- You will be directed to the login page. Here you will find the Sign up option at the bottom of the page.
- Click on Sign up and fill in the details of your Name, Email Address, set a Password and tick the “Privacy Policy and Terms & Conditions” checkbox.
- A verification email will reach you in your inbox (if not found, check in Spam or Promotions folder).
- Click on the Verify your email option and a new tab opens.
- Tick the check box for Institute Usage Policy and your account request will be sent to the library team for account approval to access the institute-subscribed eResources. Meanwhile, you will be logged into the app and can start using it for freely available articles online.
