Re: [CODE4LIB] shibboleth listserv?

Re: [CODE4LIB] Shibboleth and Aleph?
Metalib and SFX can both be configured to use PDS for authentication. PDS is Ex Libris' Patron Directory Services app. It provides single sign on between Ex Libris interfaces (Aleph, Metalib, Digitool, and maybe Primo i don't know). PDS can be configured with any backend source for authn. In our case, we configured PDS as a Shibboleth service provider. In doing so, Aleph and Metalib then have a single sign on with other shibboleth-enabled applications. EZproxy can also be configured as a Shibboleth service provider. SFX can be configured to send all target URLs through a proxy. We have configured SFX to send all target URLs through our shibboleth enabled EZproxy. SFX is just an example here, any application that creates URLs should send them through your EZproxy to achieve single sign on. One step we have not taken in production is to configure the online resources (Ebsco, ScienceDirect, etc) as shibboleth service providers. However, we have done so in a few tests. And we have worked, in conjunction with Internet2 Shibboleth Library Working Group, with Chris Zagar for more advanced integration with shibboleth and ezproxy. He has made some enhancements to ezproxy so that the WAYF process can be skipped at the online resource if the URL is originated through ezproxy. (This is done with Starting Point URLs in ezproxy and Session Initiators in the online resource's service providers.) I have a web page that describes a little of what we have done with Shib within our library consortium. It has some documentation on how to configure PDS and ILLiad for use with Shib. http://usmai.umd.edu/auth Ex Libris has also added information in their PDS documentation specific to Shibboleth.

EZproxy performs nice as shibbolizing proxy for commercial services (though using such a proxy perfectly turns upside down the Shibboleth concept ...). We keep those users in a small identity management system with Shibboleth IdP sotware in front of and use EZproxy as service provider. We try pushing service providers to adopt Shibboleth (so in the end we might get rid of EZproxy). First talks with big content providers have taken place, but we are not in production with any yet. And there are some efforts by libraries and universities to get their identity management going and shibbolized, but they seem to progress rather slowly (for serveral reasons, technical (closed library software) as well as organisational obstacles...).

Re: [CODE4LIB] Shibboleth
Univ of Maryland (USMAI) is also part of the InCommon Library Shibboleth group. We are using Shibboleth in production for the following library services: PDS (Aleph/Metalib), EZproxy, and ILLiad.

Our central IT organization is in charge of operations for Shibboleth, though the Library is closely involved.
