1. Keep open the window with the article citation (usually a page from SFX or EBSCOhost).

3. Click on the green Create Request button near the top of the Tipasa account page.
4. Fill out the starred fields of the form (Journal Title, Date, Article Title, Author, and Page Numbers) using the information in the article citation. Try to copy and paste, where possible.
5. Scroll to the bottom of the form and select the green Submit Request button. You'll receive an email confirmation.

2. Return to your Tipasa account; you should be prompted to log in using the AU Okta sign-in page.
3. If the error persists, try a different browser.
