We offer two methods of extending access to LibraryMusicSource.com to your students, faculty and library patrons.

1. IP-based

   Many larger organizations including universities may prefer to subscribe using our IP-based account. With this type of account, the administrator will provide us with an IP address or range of IP addresses for the account. Once set up, any user visiting LMS from an IP address within the range associated with your account will automatically be logged in through your account.

   This option is ideal for institutions with large numbers of users and who have static IP addressing. Please note that all users accessing LMS through your IP range will be considered as a single user. Therefore, it is not possible to distinguish use from a particular student or library patron under this type of subscription plan.

2. User sign in based

   Organizations who do not have a static IP addresses (i.e. dial-up internet users), or organizations who prefer to designate separate accounts for individuals using their master account have the option of creating a user sign in based account. With this type of account, you will create a master log in and password which will allow you to create as many sub users of your account as you wish.

   With this type of account, you could assign each of your individual users their own log in and password, create one log in and password that you give out to your patrons or set up a terminal in your library which is already logged in with the sign in your create. It's completely up to you as to how to set up your users. We do, however, recommend that you do not give out or expose your master log in information to any library patrons to prevent tampering with your account set up and details.

If you are the administrator for your school's account, you should receive renewal reminders beginning approximately two months before your account expires. These renewal reminders will contain the link to the renewal section of the Management Center. In case you don't receive this reminder, you can still access the renewal area by logging in to your account here. After logging in, you'll be able to view your renewal history there and also initiate your renewal if your account is nearing expiration.
