Hi Ken,

 

I'd be happy to assist and talk for a few minutes about the barriers as we see them at UCSD. I'll make sure to be there 10-15 mins early so we can plan. Unless you intend to, I could also mention that UCSD recently joined a 'Shib and Libraries' Working Group composed of four campuses (Chicago, UCSD, UMD, and Penn State), initiated and coordinated by Steve Carmody.

 

I hope you don't mind, but I'm cc'ing this group hoping that other participants might be able to join us at CNI. Will you be there Steve?

 

Luc

Luc,
   I'm scheduled to do a session on Monday April 16 at 3:15 pm.  Much
of the session will be a general update on federations, but I'd like
to spend some time in a discussion about the particular issues of
libraries in the US and federations.  Given the original use case of
libraries, and the utilization overseas, it might be good to explore
what's different in the US, what the perceived barriers are, and what
might be paths to pursue.
   If you are planning to attend my session, could I ask you to talk
for a few minutes about your perceptions of these issues, and the
situation at UCSD?  You are one of the thought, and practice, leaders
in this space.
       Ken
