Abstract

OCLC EZproxy provides access to off-campus users via IP address authentication. It acts as an intermediary between a libraries’ network and secure online resources, such as subscription databases. Texas Tech University Libraries moved from a locally maintained EZproxy server to a hosted instance at OCLC in the summer of 2014. We will talk about the challenges and issues we faced, and offer several recommendations for those considering a move to or a new implementation of a hosted EZproxy service.
