Q. How to manage pop-ups and cookies in Google Chrome

Unblocking Pop-ups

Why do I need to allow pop-ups? Some academic databases and library resources use pop-ups to display full-text articles or additional features. Blocking these pop-ups may prevent you from accessing important content.

How do I allow pop-ups in Chrome?

Open Chrome.
Click the three dots menu in the top-right corner.
Select "Settings."
Click "Privacy and security" in the left sidebar.
Select "Site Settings."
Click "Pop-ups and redirects."
To allow pop-ups for all sites, toggle the switch next to "Sites can send pop-ups and use redirects."
To allow pop-ups for specific sites, click "Add" under "Allowed to send pop-ups and use redirects" and enter the website URL.
