*eduPersonEntitlement (optional) – to offer enhanced access to content. We will be using the entitlement to allow enhanced text views of all works (public domain and in-copyright) to users at member institutions who have a print disability. Note that this service has not yet expanded beyond its pilot implementation at the University of Michigan.

    Info

    An addition from Mike Grady: I was a part of defining these values, and a part of defining the potential use case for this "enhancedTextProxy" value. This value would typically be used for, at least at a Higher Ed institution, the staff in the office which provides support services for students with disabilities. These are often the staff (perhaps along with staff in the Library) who have been tasked with converting resources into a form that various students need. And these are the staff who may need to assess whether a given adapted version in HathiTrust is sufficient to meet a given student's needs, or whether they'll need to look elsewhere (or do it the adaptation themselves) for an adapted version that does. And who will support the student if they have problems accessing adapted content in HathiTrust. In order to be able to do all of those tasks, they'll need to have the capability to get to these same adapted versions, but operate under a policy of doing so only for the specific support of a student who is themselves eligible for the content.)

  • http://www.hathitrust.org/access/standard - attribute value for standard use. This attribute value is not required but is provided for Identity Providers that prefer to enter an entitlement value for all users.
