@brepols.net Hello - I'm trying to use BBIH but everytime I click on a title, I just get the blank screen of doom (see screenshot). I've checked my safari settings and don't have any obvious content or popup blockers that would lead to this - any insight? It's making BBIH unusable for me.

@brepols.net and / or historian colleagues, I'm just getting a blank page when I ask to see selected items on BBIH as in attached. Any suggestions? And any way to get an export of selected results that looks the way it did in the old days - not requiring referencing software to read? (eg below)

“Merry Ever After” by Joe Hasker, “The Writing on the Hearth” by Cynthia Harnett, “Little House in the Big Woods” by LI Wilder, and some really great history teachers; but I sort of fell into studying to become an actual historian after my BA
