Some basic troubleshooting tips when you are not receiving email notices

•    Ask your library to make sure the email address on your account is correct.  

•    If your email address is correct, please add notices@ccls.org to your white list/allowed senders list.  If you cannot add a single address, add ccls.org to the white list/allowed senders.
