Abstract

The Texas Digital Library (TDL) is taking advantage of the Shibboleth architecture to authenticate and authorize its users within its services. During the beginning of this year we have worked with UT Austin and Texas A&M Universities to create a TDL Federation and setup Identity and Service Providers at both locations. It is our goal to have each participating institution to join the TDL Federation and install an Identity Provider. This will allow each of the TDL services to be accessible to the entire set of member institutions. The presentation will describe the federation, identity and service providers, and describe their current implementation within the TDL Repositories Project.
