non-community member library access

[Riesner, Giles W.]

We only allow remote access for Students and Staff (including retirees); no alumn, reciprocal borrowersi or non College personnel. ANYONE can use them when they are at one of our campuses or extension centers as we are
a public institution.

Subject: [WEB4LIB] non-community member library access


Do any academic libraries allow non-community members to access electronic resources in ways other than as walk-ins?  I have been tasked with finding this out.  All of our license agreements specify that access is restricted to authorized users which are defined as current faculty, staff and students and (in some cases) walk-in users.  Has anyone negotiated access for users not covered in this definition?  We're pursuing alternative revenue streams and want to explore the possibility of allowing non-community members to purchase library access.


Thanks,
Stew
