How to log in
Any time you want to sign in, you need to enter your login name. Your login name is a combination of a code for your school and your school lunch number or ID number.
Example: if you attend the Meridian School District and your lunch number is 800000, your library login will be ME800000. Your default PIN is 1234, but you can change it after you sign in to the catalog the first time.

Troubleshooting Hints
Wrong name? Re-enter your student ID number. If that still doesn’t work, talk to your teacher or librarian to verify your student ID.
Wrong birthday? You can continue setting up your online account. Next time you’re at the library, you should have a librarian correct it.
Wrong email address? You can continue setting up your online account. Next time you’re at the library, you should have a librarian correct it.
Misspelled Name? You can continue setting up your online account. Next time you’re at the library, you should have a librarian correct it.
I received the message “user name or pin is incorrect.” Try re-entering your number. If that doesn’t work, talk to your teacher or librarian to verify your student ID number. If you have the correct ID number and it’s still not working, talk to your parent or guardian to see if you have been opted out.
