InCommon Library Services Webinar Jan. 15

How can a library use Shibboleth and EZProxy together to better 
integrate licensed resources with your library software environment? How 
can newly developed best practices help resource providers and libraries 
better integrate single sign-on and federated access?

Get the answer to these and other questions from the InCommon Library 
Services Collaboration webinar, Friday, January 15, 2010 at 1 p.m. 
(EST). David Kennedy, an application developer at Duke University 
Libraries and chair of the collaboration’s vendor subgroup, will give a 
brief technical overview of the Best Practices developed by the 
collaboration and demonstrate how Shibboleth and EZProxy can be used 
together to better integrate licensed resources into your library 
software environment.

Library technical services staff, as well as librarians familiar with 
federating technology, should find this webinar helpful.

The webinar will help prepare your library for the changes ahead, such 
as personalization services provided by licensed resource providers, and 
demonstrate ways to overcome the challenges of your library managing IP 
addresses to provide access control. David will also give updates on 
vendors joining InCommon.

David Kennedy has more than 11 years experience working in information 
technology in academic university libraries.  Over the last two years, 
he has been a member of the InCommon Library Services Collaboration, and 
currently chairs the vendor subgroup.  He is also a member of the NISO 
SSO Authentication Working Group.
