Getting Moving on Federated Identity in Libraries
Wednesday September 16, 2026 1:45pm - 3:00pm EDT
Federated identity, which can provide a privacy-protecting method to accessing scholarly information, has been long available for libraries from most publishers, yet adoption across the community has been slow. What’s holding us back, and how can we move forward? Participants will be invited to share their experiences and how a pilot project to simplify the process could chart a path forward.
