Why am I seeing a security warning or being denied access to a database?

Last Updated: May 19, 2025 Views: 16

A: Some databases may trigger a security notice in certain browsers, preventing access. This can happen even if the database works fine in another browser.

Q: How can I fix this issue?
A: Try the following solutions:

  • Open the database link in a Private/Incognito Window
  • Switch to a different browser — Chrome, Firefox, or Edge are recommended

If the issue persists, contact your campus library for assistance.
