A LiLI Account for your Library

Why Sign up for an Account?

While libraries are able to direct their patrons to log into the LiLI databases through http://www.lili.org, in some cases libraries need to sign-up for accounts of their own. These accounts are free and allow libraries to customize the databases to better serve their populations.

How to Sign-up for LiLI

Contact the customer service sales representatives listed under the links below to set-up your library's accounts.
