IMPORTANT: UpToDate Account Registration Update

Dear library users,

UpToDate is well received by IMU community, and this is shown through the overwhelming response of accounts being registered by IMU community. The usage of the database has been steadily increased each year. Congratulations!

With this being said, the library will undergo a security enhancement exercise as recommended by the publisher to ensure the platform is continually accessible without any interruption. This exercise requires existing users to update their registered email address via the platform. Users that registered their account previously using personal email are required to update their email to IMU’s before 30 September 2026 (Wednesday), otherwise, their existing account together with their CME points and search history will be disabled and no longer available to be accessed.

Below is summary of what you are required to do:
