Step 3. Use your preferred login (e.g. Google, Microsoft etc.) to create your personal account. Update your profile and you will receive a confirmation after you complete the registration.
Step 4: Once registered, you can login and access to the My Account area (click your username on the top right hand corner) and view your personalisation options such as saved searches, alerts and favourites.
This video was produced by Informit (Aug. 2021, 2:14 mins). It guides you how to create an individual account (starting at 00:17 - ) and login using an institutional account (starting at 1:30 - ) on the Informit platform.
If you register using your Holmesglen email, you will automatically be associated with Holmesglen and given to access to content to which Holmesglen has a subscription. The institutional account pop-up window therefore won't be displayed. If you log in to Informit successfully, a Holmesglen logo will be appeared on the top right-hand corner.
