1. On the start page, in the login box, enter your username and password. See screenshot.
2. Either select 'Enter' to log into your default role, or select the role button to log into a specific role: Author, Reviewer, Editor, or Publisher.
3. If you do not remember your username and/or password, you can select 'Send Login Details' and enter your email address. You will receive a link to a page where you can reset your password.
4. If you are new to the site, you can select 'Register Now' to register as a new user. This will create a new local account only valid for this Editorial Manager site.

After login you will be directed to your default Main Menu page, usually the Author Main Menu page.
