MVC Library's OneSearch

Using your OneSearch Account

Signing In

Clicking the “Sign in” button on the top right of the screen will allow you to log-in to your OneSearch account. Select Students & Staff in the pop-up window.

This will redirect you to the RCCD Single Sign On (SSO) page.

Enter your RCCD email address, click Next, and then your email password, and click Sign In.

If you cannot log-in then make sure you have registered your RCCD Single Sign On (SSO) account. Instructions on registering your SSO account can be found here: http://www.mvc.edu/students/lostpassword.cfm#first-time-registration

You will then be redirected back to OneSearch, where it should show you as signed in. You can click your name on the top right corner of the screen to view your account options.

Library Card (Loans, Requests, Fines, Blocks) –

Library Card will show you an overview of your Loans (checkouts), requests (holds), fines + fees, blocks + messages, and personal details. From here you can renew your items, cancel requests, or view your fines/fees (payment option hopefully coming soon).

Renewing

To renew an item sign-in to your MVC account via the Sign In button, as described above. Once signed in you can view and renew you items by clicking your name on the top right corner of the screen, and selecting My Loans.

Your current loans will be displayed. You can renew all items with the RENEW ALL button or renew select items with the RENEW button displayed for each item. If you are not allowed renewal then the reason will be displayed (another patron has a hold, maximum renewals have been reached, etc).

Placing holds
Requests can be placed on checked out MVC items or on most items that are owned by RCC or Norco libraries.

First look up the item you would like to request. If you are not already signed in then click "Sign In" on the yellow bar in the middle of the item's record.

This will redirect you to the RCCD Single Sign On (SSO) page. This log-in is the same as your student email address and email password.

If the item is requestable then a Request link should show under the Get It heading. Click this link.

Enter the pickup location and any additional into the request form. Click Submit.

When the item is ready for pickup you will receive an email at your student/employee RCCD email account.

My Favorites (Saved Records / Saved Searches) –

OneSearch gives you the ability to saved records and searches. You can access these saved records and searches under this My Favorites link. You can also add labels to saved records and setup email alerts or an RSS feed for your saved searches.

Your search history can also be viewed from here, but please note that the search history is only for your current session and will be cleared once you log out or close the browser.

The ‘Display Language’ allows you to change the language of the interface. Currently only English and Spanish are available (please let us know if you would like another language added).
