The information provided here is intended to assist users of the ECS website with the various login scenarios presented on the site. At this time it is not possible for an individual user to have only one universal username and password to access every part of the site. This is because different parts of the site are hosted on different platforms, each with its own authentication mechanism. For further information, please contact us at ecs@electrochem.org.
ECS Digital Library: The ECS Digital Library (DL) provides searchable online access to the various journals, books, and other collections published by The Electrochemical Society. Members create their own usernames and passwords for the DL during the process of registering for online access to the DL restricted content. Members will be prompted for their login information when they choose to download full text articles from JES, ESL, and ECST. For more information about online access to ECS publications, including assistance, click here. ECS Digital Library: Username: [user created] Password: [user created]
Note: The DL is hosted on the American Institute of Physics's Scitation platform, therefore some users of the DL may have existing Scitation or Scitation's DocumentStore accounts that allow them to take advantage of the many features of this platform. For more information, click here.
ECS Article Packs: ECS members should use their Digital Library login (see above) to download articles into their article pack and also to access their ECS Article Pack Report. For more information about article packs, including assistance, click here. ECS Article Packs: Username: [same username as for ECS Digital Library] Password: [same password as for ECS Digital Library]
ECS Meeting Abstracts: The Meeting Abstracts Peer X-Press (PXP) site is used by both authors and symposium organizers. Authors must create new accounts for each ECS meeting when submitting abstracts regardless of whether they have submitted abstracts to a past ECS meeting. Authors create their own usernames and passwords in this system. The symposium organizers are assigned usernames and passwords by the ECS Meetings and Program Coordinator. The Meeting Abstracts PXP site is not linked to the PXP sites for the Journal or Letters and the logins are not necessarily the same on these sites. The Meeting Abstracts PXP site may be linked to ECS Transactions PXP site and in some cases the logins are the same on these sites. Each PXP login page has a link titled "Unknown/Forgotten password?" should users need assistance. For more information about Meeting Abstracts click here.

ECS Transactions: The ECS Transactions (ECST) Peer X-Press (PXP) sites are used by authors, issue editors, and reviewers. To access an ECST PXP site for one of the Society biannual meetings, users must enter the exact same username and password that was created for the related ECS Meeting Abstracts PXP site (see above). To access an ECST PXP site for a non-ECS meeting or an ECS co-sponsored meeting users must create their own logins for that specific meeting. The ECST logins are not carried over from one meeting or PXP site to another. The ECST PXP site is not linked to the PXP sites for the Journal or Letters and the logins are not necessarily the same on these sites. Each PXP login page has a link titled "Unknown/Forgotten password?" should users need assistance. For more information about ECST click here.

ECS Journal and Letters: The Peer X-Press (PXP) sites for the Journal of The Electrochemical Society and Electrochemical and Solid-State Letters are used by authors, editors, and reviewers. To access these sites, users would either have an account created for them or would have to create their own accounts. The username will usually be the user's e-mail address, but not always. Users create their own passwords as part of the registration process. It is only necessary to create an account in one or the other journal. Once an account is created, the same username and password will apply to both the Journal and Letters. The Journal and Letters PXP sites are not linked to the PXP sites for Meeting Abstracts or ECS Transactions and the logins are not necessarily the same on these sites. Each PXP login page has a link titled "Unknown/Forgotten password?" should users need assistance. For more information about ECS journals click here. ECS Journal and Letters PXP:
