Proxy Account Application Form

PLEASE NOTE: No registration is required for most MSU people. If you are not successful logging in to library resources or do not know or have a Banner/OneCard Number, then you should apply. Otherwise, your account is already in the system by virtue of being a student or employee of MSU.

In accordance with our licensing agreements for databases and journals, only Montana State University Faculty, Staff, Students, and legal affiliates as determined by the Provost's office are eligible for this service! Do not share your account information with other persons. Thank you!
