</o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoListParagraph" style="margin-left:0in"><span lang="EN-GB">Soon Springer Nature plans to implement a new institutional authentication and access journey on Nature.com, making use of the Coalition for Seamless Access (formerly RA21: Resource Access

<p class="MsoListParagraph" style="margin-left:0in"><span lang="EN-GB">It can be painful for your researchers to gain access to your subscriptions on a publisher’s site when they are outside of your institution’s network IP ranges. Researchers are required
to authenticate themselves as members of your institution by using a proxy, federated authentication, or another means.
