FW: [WEB4LIB] Database Authentication

[Thomas Edelblute]

Earlier today, the head of Academic Technology was asking the library to
make this change because they want some statistics on USIU students vs.
non-students using the library databases.

Subject: [WEB4LIB] Database Authentication


Much has been said of late regarding the need for off-campus library 
users to verify their eligibility to use information resources such 
as licensed databases.  I am wondering if any library is requiring 
users WITHIN the library building to authenticate before 
access is granted to remote databases.  Thanks in advance.
