EZProxy is one of the most used, and exposed, applications that library IT supports. Libraries use EZProxy to restrict access to some of our most coveted resources. As such, EZProxy can be used as one of the frontlines in identifying compromised user credentials. In this presentation Paul Butler (Library Technologies Support Analyst at Ball State University) will discuss the techniques, EZProxy customizationscustomization, and custom code Ball State University Libraries uses to identify compromised user credentials.

Building a PHP code library for Interacting with an Linked Data-based Discovery API - Karen Coombs (OCLC): The WorldCat Discovery API has the typical abilities you’d expect for building your own local discovery world: search access to WorldCat bibliographic and article data, facets, a variety of search indexes, and links to holdings. Because an RDF-based model is fairly new to libraries, we decided we could increase the adoptability adaptability of the API by providing a code library that would streamline the development process. This presentation will discuss the process of creating object-oriented PHP code library which would make the semantically rich entities and data available in a fashion that was more familiar to programmers used to working in OO PHP.<br />11:40 - 12:00: <br />VuFind and OLE Deployment Architecture<br />In the August 2014, The University of Chicago Library migrated from its legacy ILS to Kuali OLE (Open Library Environment) as an early adopter. At the same time we brought up VuFind as our new discovery layer. This talk will describe the deployment architecture for both applications, including myriad integration points with external systems.<br />12:00 - 12:20: Lightning Talks #3 / Tech petting zoo?<br />12:00 20 - 12:30: Closing<br />
