Library and Academic Success: Troubleshooting: Browser & software requirements

Browsers

Recommended Browsers

Page1+, the library's search starting point (search box on main library website), should work well in all of the following recommended browsers:

Microsoft Edge
Firefox
Chrome
Safari

Specialized Databases

Databases requiring specific browsers will be noted in the database description. See an example below - Criterion on Demand is a database that works better in Firefox or Chrome. Images beside the database name will let you know of specifications.

Example

Criterion on Demand This link opens in a new window
Criterion on Demand provides easy access to educationally relevant feature films used in Canadian Higher Education Institutions and represents a large number of feature film producers. Criterion can only be used for educational/curriculum purposes. Screen sharing applications such as WebEx or MSTeams cannot be used. Use Firefox or Chrome to avoid digital rights issues.
