There are actually two different issues here, technical and legal.</div>

If you have an ezproxy system (or also I believe Open Athens - we use local-hosted ezproxy), you can easily create temporary username/password pairs directly in it that does not rely on your campus' main network authentication/account system.</div>

That solves the technical issue.</div>

But the legal issue is whether such users are allowed under your license agreements, and that could vary by license, so giving them an ezproxy-local account that would just automatically grant them access to ALL of the services in your database config file
might violate some contracts. </div>

There are directives you can use in ezproxy to give such accounts access to only a subset but then someone needs to pay attention to each specific license and work with your ezproxy manager to define and maintain that subset definition.</div>

And some vendors might claim that your IT dept's refusal to issue these users a general campus account is by definition (perhaps literally as defined in contracts) evidence that they are NOT properly authorized users.</div>

Hi All, one of our colleges is offering non-credit continuing education c<span style="font-family:Verdana,Geneva,sans-serif; font-size:13.3333px; font-style:normal; font-variant-ligatures:normal; font-variant-caps:normal; font-weight:400; color:rgb(0,0,0)">ourses</span><span style="font-family:Verdana,Geneva,sans-serif; font-size:10pt; color:rgb(0,0,0)">.
These folks aren't in our Banner system and won't be issued an institutional email address nor accounts so access through our proxy serve will be problematic. These will be 8-week courses, so relatively short. How are other libraries handling this situation?
We met with the college and they refer to the students as participants, not students.</span></div>
