          - Download Firefox

5. Log Into UCONNECT

Try logging into https://uconnect.uco.edu and see if you successfully authenticate, then try logging into library resources.

6. Try a New Device

If you have access to another computer or device, try using it. If you can access library resources from a different device, it will indicate that a configuration on your current device is causing the issue.

7. Use a Library Computer

As a last resort, you may visit the library and use one of the library's computers to access library resources.
