After signing into the database, you will need to create a new sign-in. This is a local account on the database and is independent of the login that allows you into the database. Click the “Sign In” link on the top horizontal menu in the right hand column.
The easiest way to create a sign is to use your already existing Google account. Click on the blue “Sign in with Google” button and it will create a Google linked account.
If you do not wish to use a Google account, you can click on the “Create one now” link at the bottom. Remember these logins are personal accounts for you to save searches and create alerts and are not tied to your D’Youville accounts.
