Significant forces are propelling changes in access to online content, particularly for the research and education community. The major browser organizations are making changes to their software that disrupt traditional campus access control approaches. National funding agencies in both the US and Europe are requiring open access to both research publications and associated data sets. New categories of service providers are being introduced to better preserve privacy in an increasingly federated landscape. The National Institute of Standards and Technology is revising important standards in how that landscape is managed.
This pair of talks will highlight the changing access landscape and discuss the consequences for the library community. It will also seek to engage the library community in campus discussions about how institutions can manage these changes as well as making sure library special requirements in areas such as open access are reflected in these processes. Tracy Tolliver is director of Library IT and has leadership roles in some of the key activities. Ken Klingenstein has been involved in trust, identity, and access control developments at national and international levels for a long time.
