E-Reserves and Pop-Up Blockers
The E-reserves system at the NCSU Libraries uses pop-ups to display documents to users.
This can cause problems for users who have pop-up blockers installed, often without their knowledge.
One easy solution to this problem is to hold down the "Control" button while clicking on a link.
This disables pop-up blocking in most cases.
