Defining Use Cases for Federating Library Services

["T. Howell" <>]

The updated template can be seen here:
<https://spaces.internet2.edu/display/inclibrary/Models+for+Use+Cases+-+Temp
late>

A sample of what I am working on here:
<https://spaces.internet2.edu/display/inclibrary/Shibbolized+EZproxy>

And the following explanation is from our Subgroups main wiki site:
<https://spaces.internet2.edu/display/inclibrary/Use+Case+Subgroup>

   Models: Each model below organizes a series of use cases with
commonalities in the technological implementation and has several related
use cases of both the basic and advanced category. Specific vendor
situations may be separately categorized as a model when approriate.
Otherwise most use cases list the vendors of the software that are assumed
to have an impact.

   Basic Use Cases: This type of use case is most likely to be implemented
by almost all institutions (libraries). A cookbook for how to go about
implementing each of these use cases is intended to be created.

   Advanced Cases: This type of use case is implemented by more then one
institution but includes complex variations on a basic use case. Cookbooks
may be developed for some of these use cases and then used as a starting
point to extrapolate to other similarly complex use cases.


Also note we agreed to have a short 30 minute meeting prior to the full

cases though it presently only matters for the EZProxy use case) are:
