WCU FAQs: WCU General Information

Campus library staff create faculty library accounts for new hires on an ongoing basis. Please follow these directions to sign in to your library account.

Library IDs match your WCU email username, everything before the @ symbol; e.g. The library ID is the same as the username used for logging in to Canvas and the Portal, however the password must be created separately. To create/reset your password, enter your Library ID at https://westcoastuniversity-on-worldcat-org.westcoastuniversity.idm.oclc.org/myaccount and select Set/reset Password. A password link will be emailed to your WCU email account. The link expires in 24 hours for security purposes. Changing your library account password will NOT change your Canvas or Portal password.

If you receive an account has expired or username is invalid message when trying to log-in, please email askwculibrary@westcoastuniversity.edu for assistance.
