MyLOFT password needs to be created when the library team has registered your account or when you are signing up by yourself.

Account created by Library Team
  • When the Library Team creates your account, a welcome email reaches your institute-affiliated/registered email address (if not found, check Spam or Promotions folder).
  • There is a button to Login as “Your Name” in that email. Click on the option.
  • It will open a new tab and will ask you to create a strong password (a list of instructions will be available when you click on text boxes to create a password).
  • After an acceptable password is typed in and retyped to confirm the password, click on Continue.
  • The page shows the message of a password being set and an option to log in.

Note: If you are setting up the password in your mobile browser app, the link to the Google Play/ Apple App Store will appear after the password is set successfully. 

Sign up by user
  • While you are signing up by yourself (if the option is enabled for the institute), a page with text boxes will appear.
  • The page will ask for the Full Name, Email Address and to create a Password.
  • Type a strong password and retype to confirm.
  • Then click Continue.

Note: For signing up through Google authentication, no password is required.
