What are my UB ID and password?

FAU members can access University Library services using their IdM ID and password. You can update your details via the IdM portal.

Non-university members use their UB-ID to log in to the catalog, access their library account, and use the computer stations. The UB-ID is an 11-digit number. You can find it on your library card starting with 028 or 056 (for users who registered with their OHMcard).

Before logging in for the first time, you must set your password using the „Set/Forgot Password” feature in the catalog. You can do this no later than 30 minutes after receiving your library card. Enter the email address you provided when you received your library card. You will then receive a link to set your password. Your new password must be at least 12 characters long and include one uppercase letter, one lowercase letter, one number, and one special character. We recommend changing your password regularly.
