How to Log In 

An operator account is required to access Alexandria Librarian every time the application is launched.

The basic steps to log in are the same for all Alexandria libraries:

  1. Open an Alexandria URL in your browser.
  2. On the login screen, enter your username and password.
  3. Click Log In.

Need to log in as a different operator? Reload your browser window to get back to the Log In screen, then log in as normal.




Alternatively, if you have the GG4L SIS Integration, you can log in using your GG4L credentials:

  1. Open an Alexandria URL in your browser.
  2. On the login screen, click OR CONTINUE WITH GG4L.
  3. Once the GG4L login window opens, enter your GG4L username and password.
  4. Click Sign In.

But where do I log in?

Well, that depends. The URL you'll use to log in depends on a variety of factors based on how your library is set up and which module you want to log in to. Follow the steps for your particular installation below:

Cloud Hosting
  1. Open your web browser and go to the address bar, typically located at the top of the window.
  2. Enter your library's domain name or IP address, forward slash (/), the name of the module you want to access.
    • yourdomain.com/module
    • 123.456.78.910/librarian
    • yoursite.goalexandria.com/librarian
  3. Tap Enter.
  4. On the Log In screen, enter your username and password.
  5. Click Log In.

  2. Enter your library's domain name or IP address, colon (:), port number, forward slash (/), the name of the module you want to access.
    • yourdomain.com:port/module

  3. Tap Enter.

Alexandria Controller

To access a single site within your Controller account, you need the serial number for that site's data station. You can locate the serial number in /admin > Status, or Circulation > Special tab > License Info, or check with your library administrator.

  1. Open your web browser and go to the address bar, typically located at the top of the window.
  2. Enter library's domain name or IP address, colon (:), port number, forward slash (/), serial number, forward slash (/), the name of the module you want to access.
    • yourdomain.com:port/serialnumber/module
    • 123.456.78.910:8080/5555123/librarian
    • yourdomain.com:80/5555123/librarian
  3. To access the Controller Admin module, do not enter the site-specific serial number.

    • yourdomain.com:80/admin
    • 123.456.78.910:8080/admin
  4. Tap Enter.
  5. On the Log In screen, enter your username and password.

Troubleshooting

Troubleshooting

When Alexandria is behaving abnormally, it may be due to blocked ports, aggressive emails filters, etc. Before you give us a call, check these things first:

  1. Does your machine have a network filter turned on?
  2. Is one of your network filters blocking Alexandria communications?
  3. Is your network blocking communications outside of your network?
  4. Is your email firewall blocking or filtering Alexandria messages?
