[CASL-L] ResearchITCT - referring URLs?

[Barbara Lyons]

Hi again- here is an email I just sent to Eric @RESEARCHITCT - has anyone
had an experience with this?  Does your public library issues cards
digitally?  thanks- Barb

"Eric- Is it possible to utilize referring URL for the ResearchITCT
databases?  The reason I ask is that our database page, which is
password-protected,
lists many of the very useful ResearchITCT databases, and our teachers are
starting to complain that it is not useful for their students, as they
cannot access from home without a library card number.  I have asked the
Wilton Library if we could get the cards online/virtually, but they say
that the students must come into the library to get a card and access the
databases.

If I was able to get links that were referring URLs, that would allow my
students to access at home.

If this is not possible, I would ask: do you know if other libraries make
it possible for students to get library cards online?"
