Check them out! > SA "identified a need for a way to flag that providers very strictly did not want to receive personal information and to decrease the complexity for both Identity and Service Providers by having consistent and clear guidelines regarding attribute release. "

[SeamlessAccess.org @seamlessaccess]

Any libraries interested in reporting codes in combination with federated identity, for instance for internal billing, please have a look at the REFEDS Consultation for an attribute that could be used for just that: https://t.co/rDy9JuLjib . Please supply any input before April 5

[SeamlessAccess.org @seamlessaccess]

Our session at NISO Plus was fun & engaging! Discussion, particularly in the Q&A after the event, was active, with librarians, federation operators, and publishers all involved in better understanding the technologies behind SeamlessAccess. Recording:

[Todd Carpenter tac_NISO at social.niso.org @TAC_NISO]

There is work within @seamlessaccess to define #SAML attribute bundles (which was just approved by @REFEDS) and than further work on tying those attribute bundles into contracts as ways to ensure patron #privacy when using Seamless #ERL21

Seeing your institution twice in a list of institutions to choose from to authenticate at, doesn't help in 'seamless access', so we've started a new Working Group. Read what this is about, how it can happen, how to prevent etc in our February newsletter: https://t.co/yqH3HqfZfg
