Many resources now have secure site status (https:). Due to the nature of the Auraria Library validation system your browser may display warning pages for those resources that will give you pause ... even though the resources are safe to use.  We are attempting to solve the problem.

In the meantime if you see these warning pages (see the two illustrations below) when you are accessing resources through the Auraria Library website you may continue on through the warnings to the resource. For more information or to report seeing these warnings please email library.eresources@auraria.edu.
