My Account

Use My Account to view checked out items, renew and request items, and view and edit favorite items.
Log In
To log in to My Account, click the My Account button in the upper left corner below the Discovery logo, type your last name, CSU ID and Sage PIN, and click Login.
Your last name is not case-sensitive.
Your CSU ID is a 9-digit number that appears on your CSU ID card (or CSU + 6 digits on community borrower cards).
Your Sage PIN is 5 to 30 letters and/or digits.
If you have never logged in to Discovery or Sage before, click My Record Login, leave the PIN blank, and you will be asked to create a PIN.
My Profile
When you first log in, the My Profile screen shows your name, address, phone number and e-mail address.
You can use the links on the right to change your PIN, address, phone number or e-mail address.
You can also see the number of items you have checked out, requested and recalled, your overdue items and fines if any, and the number of favorites you have saved.
My Checked Out Items
My Checked Out Items lists books and other materials you have checked out.
To order the items by the due date, click "Sort by Due Date".
To renew one or more items, check one or more boxes next to items and click "Renew Selected".
To renew all your items, click "Renew All".
My Requests/Holds
My Requests/Holds lists items that you have requested or recalled.
To order the items by the date you requested them, click "Sort by Hold Requested Date".
To cancel one or more requests or holds, check one or more boxes next to items and click "Update Selected".
To cancel all your requests or holds, click "Cancel All".
My Favorites
To save an item to your account, click the My Favorites button in search results or item view.
Note: You will be asked to log in if necessary.
To organize your favorites, you can add tags and notes to an item.
Tags are often single words, but tags can contain one or more words.
For a multiple-word tag such as "web design", include the tag in quotes.
If you don't want to add tags or notes right away, just click Save.
In the left column of the My Favorites screen are a list of all your tags.
Click one or more tags to view only items with those tags.
Click a red X to remove one of these limits, or "Remove all limits" to view all your favorites again.
Click Edit below an item to change your tags and notes.
Click Delete to delete the favorite. Your favorites will remain in your account until you delete them.
Log Out
Click the Log Out button to log out of your account in both Discovery and Sage.
Logging out also clears your search history for privacy.
For the security of your account, you will be automatically logged out after 10 minutes of inactivity.
