Hi all,
For your interest: "Protecting Patron Privacy in Digital Resources" on Scholarly Kitchen.
Stanford library made a statement recently about patrons privacy. I think this statement perfectly aligns with our work.
It draws the libraries' concerns and underlines the importance of our work. FIM4L should have the ability to make e-resource access with SSO better than using IP based access. Libraries cannot win the fight for preserving patron privacy by keep using IP based access.
I think we even have to encourage SSO access (when Open Access without authentication is not possible) in order to "... carefully structure [SSO access] to minimize exposure of patron data as much as possible, but always to ensure disclosure of any PII that may be transmitted." According to the article.
all the best,
Jos
