[Michlib-l] MeL GeoIP URLs

[Breed, Liz (MDE)]

Greetings!

The MeL geo-IP authentication URLs are ready. Visit our Get Ready page<http://mel.org/index.php?P=P_GetReady_Display> or check out this link<http://michigan.gov/documents/libraryofmichigan/lm_2018_MeL_GeoIP_URLs_Sept_634272_7.docx>. You will be prompted to download the file, which is a Microsoft Word document.

These URLs will be in place on MeL.org starting October 1st.

There are two URLs that are still in-process...AtoZDatabases and MyHeritage. When these URLs are ready we will update the file and send notice out via the listservs.

The geo-IP URLs check to see if a user is coming from a registered institution (based on IP address), then they check to see if the user is in Michigan to allow access to the resource.

If you are looking for the list of direct URLs, which only work from a registered IP address (within the library/institution), visit https://mcls.org/directurls<https://na01.safelinks.protection.outlook.com/?url=https%3A%2F%2Fmcls.org%2Fdirecturls&data=02%7C01%7Cbreedl%40michigan.gov%7Cee9c4767f587428f51d608d62230541e%7Cd5fb7087377742ad966a892ef47225d1%7C0%7C0%7C636733988294426370&sdata=mMPHTWvIsX0aYGrdXTokOuRb9Ogn2wSAiMIyr%2FWNtjE%3D&reserved=0>.

Any questions or problems, please contact meldatabaseshelp at mcls.org<mailto:meldatabaseshelp at mcls.org>.

Many thanks!
