Using Safari with Cite It and Read and Respond Assignments 

Instructors Only

Safari does not work as smoothly with Libraries Course Materials in particular when you are using some of the instructor functionality such as Cite It, Creating a Read and Respond Assignment, and adding links to items throughout your courses. There are a couple of settings you may adjust in Safari to improve the functionality. These settings have been recommended by the developer.

Safari Privacy Setting Adjustments:

  • Turn off Cross Site Tracking (settings, privacy, uncheck "prevent cross site tracking"
  • Disable "Block all Cookies" (uncheck block all cookies)

If you have adjusted both of these settings and continue to experience issues, contact Zach Eden (zeden1@unl.edu) and/or Melissa Gomis (melissa.gomis@unl.edu)
