Problems Connecting to the Library's New Web Site?
We recently moved our web site to a new server. If you know someone who is getting a “page not found” or similar error when they try to connect, here’s what to do:
Delete any bookmarks or favorites you have linking to our website. Instructions for various browsers in Windows and Mac are below.
Virus/Firewall settings
If you have any virus/firewall software running you may also need to
make sure it will allow the saving of a new cookie (the browser also
needs to allow this) for the Library home page and the My Account page.
Also note: Any old links you have in your favorites which
start with the address: "library.ci.corvallis.or.us" should be deleted.
After deleting old favorite links use the Home page link on the Library web site and navigate to pages you want to bookmark and resave them as favorites.
