[Eril-l] Authentication

[Electronic Resources in Libraries discussion list]

HI,

We use OCLC's EZProxy Hosted and it is 100% better than what we were using
(WAM from Innovative Interfaces).

They have been very helpful troubleshooting things when we have had issues
and are quick to add new databases.

The only thing is apparently some vendors are moving away from ip
authentication, so far that hasn't happened for any of ours, Statista is
one product that I've heard of that no longer works with EProxy.
