    UCF will no longer have EZproxy as of 2021. We use OpenAthens as our method of authenticating users for off campus access and Shibboleth for campus SSO. SAML based authentication is ideal for passing user attributes, such as name, email, unique ID, and status/association with the university.

    Please prioritize implementing SAML based authentication into ILLiad.

    Thank you for adding this for a user vote--SAML compatibility is an absolute essential when it comes meeting the authentication needs of institutions and users going forward.

    Yes! We are about to use OpenAthens on a consortial level within my state, so this would be most welcome.

    We just started using Open Athens Every time in ILLiad I go to let's say an aspect of Elesevier,
    I am always asked, and need to enter, my username and password: again and again,

    Excellent! We already have OA working with ILLiad at Millersville University, but it wasn't as smooth as it could have been. Built in support would be a big improvement and allow the customer to do the configuration work much more readily.

    This would be wonderful. Our library is switching to OpenAthens along with the rest of our consortium. I've heard that several other large consortiums are also going to be moving to OpenAthens soon.
