Access to 'Library' electronic resources is controlled by membership of groups and other attributes in lookup.
Anyone with a 'MIS status' of 'staff' or 'student' (or both) in lookup will get access to the majority of electronic resources. This will be correct for the majority of students and University (but not College) staff, but can be modified by group membership as follows:
- Shibboleth service Athens gateway overrides - staff
- Members of this group are granted access to the majority of electronic resources, and to 'staff only' resources. Membership of this group will only be required to grant access to people who are not have an 'MIS status' of 'staff'.
- Shibboleth service Athens gateway overrides - students
- Members of this group are granted access to the majority of electronic resources. Membership of this group will only be required to grant access to students who are not have an 'MIS status' of 'student.
- Shibboleth service medical overrides
- Members of this group are granted access to medically-restricted material.
- Shibboleth service Athens gateway blacklist
- Members of this group are administratively prohibited from accessing any electronic resources. This group is provided to implement short-term blocks in response to misuse, etc. This prohibition applies both to members of the two groups above and to anyone receiving access by default.
Membership of these three lists and other details about them are managed by the members of a fourth group, Shibboleth service lookup group managers. Members of this group can go to the 'Members' tab of any of these four lists and from there add or remove members. They can also edit other details of the four groups (such as title, access controls, etc.) but in general should avoid doing so.
Members of a fifth group, Shibboleth service lookup group readers have read access to the membership lists of the other groups, but are not permitted to modify them.
