Dear Colleagues:
As you may know,
JSTOR is
preparing to offer institutional access via Shibboleth to members of
the UK
Federation. We have undergone successful testing with a few
In advance of
making the
service available, we would like to let you know of one particular
requirement.
Once we have configured your institutional record for Shibboleth access
to
JSTOR, your Attribute Authority will need to authorize users into JSTOR
by asserting
the eduperson entitlement attribute with a value of
urn:mace:dir:entitlement:common-lib-terms. This entitlement value
should be set
for those users who qualify under the terms of the JSTOR license
agreement.
Generally, this includes students and staff (active and retired), but
it can
also include "library walk-ins", if those users have some way of
authenticating using Shibboleth.
The official description of the entitlement
value can be found here:
http://middleware.internet2.edu/urn-mace/urn-mace-dir-entitlement.html
Please do not
hesitate to
contact JSTOR Tech Support ([log in to unmask]) if you have any
questions.
We look forward to announcing the availability of the live Shibboleth
service
very soon.
Best regards,
Kristen Garlock
