Canada library here. We have IT-required login to the individual desktop computers, but there's no requirement at all about campus users needing to login again through the proxy server (ezproxy, self-hosted) to access library licensed resources in their web
browsers (they don't).</div>

I am wondering, Christina, if the faculty objection is to the tedium of doing it, or of a perceived lack of privacy in their searching? I'm guessing the latter.</div>

Ironically, they would have MORE privacy if every library database search session went through the proxy server, because the companies would only see the proxy server's IP address instead of the individual IP address of the faculty member's specific computer.
If they are more concerned about intra-campus privacy rather than vendors, I have bad news for them - it's easy to configure ezproxy with the "A" directive so that the on campus users would not see a login process and yet their entire search session would
still run through the proxy server and hence everything they do would get into the proxy log files anyway.</div>

It's not the logging in that is a privacy concern, but rather than server path the sessions go through and what is being logged in all those intermediate servers.</div>

I wouldn't be surprised to find that your IT dept can simply log all http/https traffic down to the faculty's workstation IP if they wanted to, not just for library services but everything else on the Internet.</div>

requirements. IT departments have to be able to track users in case there is nefarious activity on the network. You are fortunate to be able to have some public computers that don’t require a log in. We have to fight to get any computers that don’t require
a log in. It’s the nature of the 21<sup>st</sup> century, unfortunately.</span></p>
