More fun publisher surveillance:
Elsevier embeds a hash in the PDF metadata that is *unique for each time a PDF is downloaded*, this is a diff between metadata from two of the same paper. Combined with access timestamps, they can uniquely identify the source of any shared PDFs.

Nice new year you got there... be a shame if anything happened to it.

I’ve so far fielded one reference request related to this tweet, specifically the etymology of no. 1. Here’s where any knowledge of Greek would be coming in handy…

Kyle K Courtney on controlled digital lending -- "Libraries buy a lot of stuff" roughly $720 billion spent on copyrighted materials, but libraries also serve a "use and access purpose of copyright", the encouragement of learning. #WLIC2021 #libraries #copyright

"What has given you new perspective? ... What will you do next?" two of the important questions for participants as #WLIC2021 comes to a close. #libraries #FoodforThought #librarians

[Modern Marion @ModernMarion]

Working together with other #libraries, as well as other organizations and institutions can help amplify our voices, raise awareness, and go further, do better, do more, and "make a habit of working together". #WLIC2021

[Modern Marion @ModernMarion]

"Working together is actually hard" -- too true; moving forward solo does not require communicating with others, listening to others, changing perspectives, and adapting behaviors. #libraries #WLIC2021 #FoodforThought

"The challenge is to maintain this energy when we return to our jobs and become immersed" in the day-to-day work. Agree with Christine Mackenzie -- will be interesting to see how the experience of reentry is the same or different from after in-person conferences. #WLIC2021

[Modern Marion @ModernMarion]

In looking at contracts for #eresources, consider patron #privacy. How to vendors handle patron information, how can settings be customized by #libraries, etc. are all important questions to address. #WLIC2021 #libraries

[Modern Marion @ModernMarion]

Gietz, Westerbeke explain that identity providers can configure settings in accordance with FIM4L principles and recommendations to only send personally identifiable attributes to trusted service providers. #WLIC2021 #privacy #eresources

[Modern Marion @ModernMarion]

Challenge identified by an attendee in preservation of patron #privacy: use of an individual's email address is used as an attribute in the login credentials is cause of concern #WLIC2021 #libraries

https://t.co/alRBHoANbp team is underlining importance of safeguarding private data of customers while providing remote access to ressources and promote federation identity technique to keep hand on it #privacy #wlic2021

[Modern Marion @ModernMarion]
