Computer workstations in Concordia University Libraries with access to the Internet require authentication of each person using the computer. Currently enrolled Concordia students, faculty and staff must use their MyConcordia NetName and password for authentication. Other categories of Library users may be eligible for guest accounts allowing one-day access to these workstations during specified hours of the day they apply for the account.
