Change in ARES course reserves log in procedure

Beginning Monday, September 10th, 2007, USC Libraries Electronic and Physical Reserves system, ARES, (http://usc.ares.atlas-sys.com) will be changing the way we authenticate users to access the system.

Users will no longer need to register for the service or remember their ARES username and password. We will be switching to LDAP authentication where the user enters the USC email ID (without the "@usc.edu") as the username and their USC email password to access the system.

There will be no changes to their current account and access. Future enhancements to this authentication are forthcoming as the university improves the process by which we authenticate users into library systems.
