My Library Account: Email Notifications

The ASU Libraries uses your ASU email as the primary method for library notifications such as overdue, recall and request. Library notices generated by the Libraries’ online system will be sent to you by email, unless you contact a Library Circulation Desk and opt to have a printed notice. Mail that is not generated by the online system will continue to be sent by post or campus mail.

You are responsible for monitoring your account, which may be done online through the "My Library Account" feature. Failure to receive a notice does not remove your responsibility for meeting the due date assigned at check out or for honoring recall notices sent to an email address.
To continue having print notification, please stop by a Library circulation desk for assistance.

 

How to change your email address

1. Go to the main library web page at http://www.asu.edu/lib and click on "My Library Account"

Some things to keep in mind

  • Additional email addresses may be used provided each email address is separated only by a comma with no spaces between addresses. For example:

    • Email1@asu.edu,email2@yahoo.com,email3@gmail.com

  • You may add or edit your email address at any time through the “My Library Account” function in the Library’s webpage, http://www.asu.edu/lib/. It is your responsibility to ensure that the email address is current and accurate.
  • SPAM filtering software may interfere with the delivery of Library notices. If you do use SPAM filters, be sure to customize your profile to accept mail from the library where the address includes @asu.edu and the subject line includes [ASULIB]. For ILL/Interlibrary Loan notices, customize your profile to accept the library's ILL address: ill@asu.edu

Please note: Do not reply to notices. They are informational only. For immediate service, please direct your questions regarding library notifications to the library circulation staff at 480/965-3605.
