OCLC Worldshare/ Interloans account Open Athens testing

Kia ora koutou

As part of our Open Athens set up we will be testing Open Athens login to OCLC (so Worldcat, Worldshare ILL and the Tipasa patron interloans account portal) soon.
Once OCLC has set us up (possibly later today) when people login to OCLC/interloans account they will be presented with a sign in options screen instead of progressing directly to the current UC ADFS sign in page.

 

The first option will take them to the UC ADFS sign in page and that is what people should use to access their account.

The second option will be the new Open Athens one and this is labelled “Test only – DO NOT USE”

Hopefully this will be pretty clear to users but wanted to give you a heads up.  The screen will only be in place temporarily until we’ve finished testing .

LAC staff using OCLC regularly – you may need to clear browser cache/cookies when the change comes through.

Ngā mihi,
