I can second Mary's confirmation below.
We recently set up a trial in exactly the same way, you just have to
specify the Identity Provider as "TypeKey" as noted below.

Hi Barbara:
Good news! MMU (still using Athens DA) has just set up a trial and you
don't need to
worry that Shibboleth is used for the trial authentication. Our
instructions were to go
to the login screen, then to scroll down the list of Identity Providers
not to our own
institution but to 'JISC Project SDSS (TypeKey Bridge)" which is being
used for
authentication purposes. We were given a unique ID and password to use
for the trial and
it most definitely works.
Hope this helps and reassures,
Mary

Hi,
QMU has been attempting to set up a trial to the JISC negotiated BBC
Motion Gallery but without success. We are not Shibboleth enabled, and
won't be for some time, intending to use OpenAthens in the meantime
which of course now has its own problems.
Unfortunately, according to the BBC, the JISC instructed them that only
access via Shibboleth would be required. Despite the information on the
JISC Collections website IP access is also not available.
I'd be interested to hear if anyone else has had similar problems.
Best wishes,
Barbara
