Thread Meetup - From Barriers to Best Practices: Community Conversation on Federated Identity in Academic Libraries

Tuesday, March 3, 1:00 p.m. ET

Building on the November 2025 “Bridging the Gap” webinar and Speaker Spotlight, this interactive and collaborative session invites participants to share experiences and explore solutions for federated identity adoption in academic libraries. 

Join peer community members such as library platform providers, identity practitioners, librarians, and content vendors for open dialogue on moving beyond IP-range authorization. We’ll discuss real-world implementation experiences, strategies for balancing privacy with modern authentication, and practical next steps for your organization.

Come prepared to ask questions, share insights, and connect with peers facing similar challenges. Whether you’re exploring federated identity or troubleshooting specific issues, this peer-to-peer conversation will help you chart a path forward.
