As a reminder, our next US Federations call will take place on Wednesday February 16th at 4:00 PM ET and will feature Grace Agnew, Associate University Librarian for Digital Library Systems at Rutgers University. Grace will be describing efforts underway on project OLE (Open Library Environment) which is a Mellon Foundation sponsored initiative now under the auspices of the Kuali Foundation. The OLE project is developing a community-source, enterprise level software that will replace current integrated library systems (ILS) as well as several ancillary systems necessary today to manage scholarly content. As a regional cloud application the project has the potential of replacing expensive proprietary systems of many libraries and Federated Identity management will be a central component of the system, enabling strong individualization of collections to be maintained and access to resources provided based on the identity and role of the user. The New Jersey’s implementation of OLE will leverage the identity management work of the individual institutions as well as NJTrust, New Jersey’s Identity management trust federation. Please join us to hear more about developments of the exciting initiative. The call in number is 1-877-944-2300, access code 99205#. We look forward to speaking with you then. Regards, -George Laskaris & Suresh Balakrishnan |
