Create an EPIC account

EPIC accounts — who can sign up?

You can only sign up for an EPIC account if you are an employee of a New Zealand based library and information service and are responsible for purchasing e-resources.

If you are a school looking for EPIC resources you do not need to join EPIC. A range of EPIC resources are freely available to all New Zealand schools through the Ministry of Education membership.
