1. Select the Sign In link in the purple bar at the top of an EBSCO search screen. 

2. Below the Sign in Button, follow the Create one now link to set up an account.

• You do not need to use your UP username and password. 

4. You can sign into your account from within any Ebsco database. Make sure to sign in before you start searching, so you can access any results or searches you saved later on.
