Dear All
Many institutions are now at the stage with their implementation of
federated access management where issues directly impacting libraries are
being considered and managed. This includes discovery processes for
end-users, testing and changing access to federated service providers,
dealing with different user definitions, managing license and resource
information and changing send-user information.
To help support this process we have established a separate mailing list to
enable discussion and exchange of views directly relating to library issues.
If you would be interested in taking part, please sign-up to the list here:
http://www.jiscmail.ac.uk/cgi-bin/webadmin?SUBED1=jisc-shibboleth-libraries&A=1
I'd be grateful if any technical contacts on the list could pass this
information on to their library teams.
This discussion list will be supported by an upcoming joint JISC / SCONUL
event on federated access and a new briefing paper for libraries. More
information will be available soon.
Please do not hesitate to contact the JISC Access Management team if you
have any questions: [log in to unmask]
Best wishes
