InC-Library, Phase 2
New - Best Practices and Resource Registry in Draft
The Phase 2 Vendor Subgroup has produced two documents, in draft form, for community review and comment.
Best Practices: documents best practices for resource providers and libraries.
Registry of Resources: Information about resources that we have contacted and are in various stages of Shibboleth-compliance. The intent is to provide a checklist for vendors for Shibboleth implementation, and to provide implementation details to universities who would like to integrate with Shibboleth-enabled resources.
We invite your review and your comments.
Background for Phase 2 Participants
Phase 2 of the collaboration will involve IdPs that are implementing Shibboleth and/or the Shibboleth/EZProxy combination for access to protected library resources.
Read this brief summary of the issues considered by Phase 1, including answers to these questions:
- Why should I implement the Shibboleth-enabled rewrite proxy?
- Why should I provide access to Shibboleth-enabled vendors with the rewrite proxy?
- If I have a Shib-enabled rewrite proxy, why access resources though Shib?
- Bullet list of use cases
- Bullet list of barriers to adoption
- Recommendation for focusing outreach efforts
