Re: How does anyone out there deal with password authenticated online content? Hutchens, Chad 29 May 2007 17:23 UTC
We have the same de-facto policy. If the publisher or provider does not offer IP authentication, we don't activate the title electronically. Also, if it's an e-only title or resource without IP authentication, we generally will not purchase or subscribe to it. Policing usernames/passwds is really not possible. Once someone has them they can distribute them however they want, regardless of how they got them in the first place (e.g. via a password protected library resource). The only way to make something like that work would be to update passwords at regular intervals. However, that solution simply doesn't scale when you start getting up there in subscription numbers.

Our policy is to not add anything to our holdings that requires password authentication. If it does not have IP authentication, it causes more trouble than it is worth. Exceptions are very few and far between.

I created a page (we use TWiki content management) on one of our intrAnets with an A-Z list of the journals that require username/password login. That intranet requires a user to login. Our page in the intranet was set up with specific rules to allow all users associated with the university to be able to log in. The campus webmaster set up these rules so it seems like magic to me. It isn't as slick as IP recognition but it beats "contacting the library for the login info" and allows 24/7 access.This wasn't something that I just knew how to do. I called the IT folks and explained what I needed and this was their solution.The marc record requires two 856 fields. One goes to the "lookup" page in the intranet with instructions to write down the information and return to the catalog; the other goes to the publisher's web site login page.MarthaIrma Nicola wrote:>Hi Gang,>>We are on the verge of SSO or single sign on and very excited about>this.
