Change to eCourses

Starting today, you may notice a change to SLCL's eCourses. Our eCourses provider, ed2go, has created a separate product for public libraries called "Learn4Life." The classes and instructors will remain the same. The main difference is no more passcodes! Instead, you will use your library card number to register for a course.

  1. I noticed there's now a limit of 5 courses per calendar year - is that new? I thought previously there was a limit to the number of passcodes granted per 6-week term, but this new limit seems quite a bit more restrictive than before.

  2. Hi Barbara–this is a new limit put in place by the vendor of the learn4life (formerly ed2go) product. The new limit went into effect in mid-June. The library did not request or have any input on this limit. If you have further questions or concerns, please call the Reference Department at 314-994-3300. Thanks.
