[IUG] Research Pro, Encore, & offsite users

[Phil Shirley <pshirley at cuyahogafallslibrary dot org>]

If a library has Research Pro and Encore, usually the resources (up to 4 
I think) whose results appear on the Encore search results screen for 
off-site users are free ones (so that people can use them without having 
to authenticate).  We'd like to have the same list of Research Pro 
resources appear on that screen for all users, both in and out of the 
library, and we would like to include not-free resources.  Has anyone 
tried this, or does anyone know whether this would actually work?  What 
I envision is that an off-site user would see "53 hits in EBSCO" or 
whatever, then click the link, type a library card number and PIN, and 
then see the list of results from that resource.  Would it work like this?
