[Eril-l] I EXTERNAL I anyone found a way to not have "Removal of Administrative Access" publisher notices and action occur annually?

[Electronic Resources in Libraries discussion list]

Every year we run reports on our electronic journals, and every year I have to change several passwords or get admin access reactivated.  I hate that they do this.

Regards,

Michael

Subject: I EXTERNAL I [Eril-l] anyone found a way to not have "Removal of Administrative Access" publisher notices and action occur annually?

Over the past year we started getting dozens of emails from publishers, e.g. PNAS, with the subject line, "Notice of Removal of Administrative Access."

The body usually reads something like this:

Dear Administrator,

Administrative access to http://www.pnas.org is removed after 1 year of inactivity. Administrative access to this site will be removed in 30 days unless you log in to the site.

Thank You

We log in to most sites, unless they are for the very large publishers, or we have some kind of a problem, only once a year around February, to check or download usage for previous CY . We don't want to have to do a bunch of busywork logins mid-year just so our supposedly "unused" admin account doesn't expire.

Has anyone figured out a way around this?

Thanks,
Deb
