Do you mean things like journals? I have set up all our online journals (bar one) to be accessed via a single key click from our Intranet. This requires agreement with all the publishers and suppliers, and you give them the IP address. In theory it is really simple. The only reason one journal is not loaded, is the publisher of that one requires individual passwords for each user to log on. The main problem you may encounter is in many Trusts, there is no 'Fixed IP address' available. We are lucky enough to have a fixed IP, so it was possible for us, but you will have to ask IT whether there is such a thing in your Trust. I understand that a lot of institutions have IPs that change on a daily basis, roaming if you like. This can't therefore be used to authenticate access to resources.
