This will assure that your session will be switched to the least busy server, rather than attempting to begin a session on a server already overloaded. If you set a bookmark to a page during your session, that bookmark will work only so long as your session is active. It is not possible, for example, to set a bookmark to the text of an article or the search page of a database you use frequently, and use it to return to that page the next day. You must begin each session at the Galileo home page. In order to access the Galileo databases from home or where you work, a password is required.
Passwords expire at the end of each semester.
If you enter an invalid password, or if you enter a valid password incorrectly, you will not see an error message. Instead, you will be returned to the password entry screen, where you may try again. There are several reasons why Galileo might refuse to accept a password. Your password may have expired. Follow the directions above to obtain the current one.
