There are two different types of welcome email depending on whether you were initially registered as a user of the Memory Jogger Digital Library with a Gmail based email address or another non-Gmail type of email address.

Gmail email address

If when you initially requested or were assigned access to the Memory Jogger Digital Library application your account was created with a Gmail based email address you will receive a welcome email with a link to the application. There will be no User ID or password in the welcome email as you will be using your Google account to access the Memory Jogger Digital Library application.

Other non-Gmail email address

If when you initially requested or were assigned access to the Memory Jogger Digital Library application your account was created with a non-Gmail based email address you will receive a welcome email with a user ID, which is your email address, a temporary password, and a link to the application.
