Troubleshooting Leap login in Chrome

First, double-check that you are logging in at the correct URL. Login pages for all Polaris libraries look the same, so if you search the web for the login you could be attempting to log in to another library's Leap instance.

The link to log in to FCPL Leap is: https://fairfax-leap.polarislibrary.com/LeapWebApp
