Option3:UseaGoogleLoginYou can use your Google Login to create an account to use with APA Style CENTRAL. If you will 

frequently need to log in from off campus, we recommend that you 

establish an account directly with APA. Google accounts do not 

work well with APA Style CENTRAL from off campus.

CENTRAL, you must be physically on campus. 

To log in when you are on campus, click the Google logo. 

To log in when you are not on campus, you cannot click the Google 

logo. You must enter your Gmail address and password in the login 

boxes. (Note that Google does not update APA Style CENTRAL 

when you change your password. You will need to enter the 

Google password you were using at the time you established the 

connection with APA Style CENTRAL.) 

If you often work remotely, we recommend that you establish an 

account directly with APA by following the instructions above.
