Re: Single sign-on technology in university environments

[Alma Garcia <almag at mills dot edu>]

I looked at the LDAP product currently available in Silver and have 
decided to wait.  In its present iteration it only  authenticates for My 
Millenium access. 

We are an academic library and use both course web resources on our 
local Intranet which uses LDAP for authentication, as well as electronic 
reserves which require a course password.  I would love to be able to 
use LDAP for electronic reserve authentication via LDAP. So we will wait. 

We are looking into what portal/ single sing-in options available to 
use. This is all part of a much bigger push by the our campus and 
fortunatly for us our library director is also the VP for Information 
Technology for the campus.
