Managing digital subscriptions
Hi Folks, We have received notice from one of the journals we subscribe to that they are going to only be providing digital format in the future. For copyright reasons I don't think we can just download this file then link to it using the 856u field as that would make it downloadable by anyone. I looked through the manual but didn't find anything to address this. I believe the ideal situation is for the document to be viewable at a workstation inside the library, but not through the public OPAC. Is there a way to handle this? We are on an older version (3.16) but I am quite prepared to update to the latest release as needed. Thanks, Doug Dearden Director, IT School for Advanced Research 505-954-7220 The School for Advanced Research has supported innovative social science and Native American artistic creativity for more than a century. Since we began offering fellowships in 1972, we have funded the work of more than 345 SAR scholars and artists, among whose ranks are six MacArthur Fellows and eighteen Guggenheim Fellows. Please join us in Santa Fe for insightful lectures or a tour of the School's historic campus. You can also follow the work of our resident scholars and Native American artists on our website at www.sarsf.org<http://www.sarsf.org>.
Hi Doug, at the moment Koha can't control access to files depending on log in, IP, or similar. You could make the bibliographic records only visible when accessed from an IP within the library, but the users could e-mail themselves the records with the URLs. So I think you really want to control who is able to access the files outside of Koha. Hope this helps, Katrin Am 18.07.2016 um 22:06 schrieb Doug Dearden:

The security for the journal would be at the publisher's end, not the library's. So access can be provided through the catalog, but the patron is going to either need to be at a supported IP address or have userid/password to prove they are a registered library user.

We use some jquery to make a link to Flipster (our digital magazine service) available only after someone has logged in. I adjusted this - https://wiki.koha-community.org/wiki/JQuery_Library#Add_a_link_to_the_header... - bit of code and it works nicely.

I bet it wouldn't be hard to use the dev tools in any browser to trick that script into thinking I'm logged in, even if I don't have an account at all.
