​Firewalls

The use of a personal firewall may prevent your access to some Phoenix Public Library electronic resources, such as databases.

These resources are licensed products paid for by the Phoenix Public Library; customers are required to authenticate with a valid library card account prior to gaining access. To access a database while using a personal firewall, you must ensure that referring URLs are allowed by disabling browser privacy.

The Library's website has been tested with the latest versions of Norton Internet Professional and McAfee Internet Security Suite.
