Although back-office identity management solutions have simplified the complex task of maintaining electronic identities, securing multiple identities across an organisation remains a major institutional challenge. For example, the management of borrower identities within the LMS often requires inputting information which has already been entered elsewhere, either by batch data transfer or even manual methods.
The Talis Keystone Identity Management module synchronises your LMS with your existing identity systems in real-time - providing the following benefits:
- Removes the reliance on manual input, ensuring data integrity and delivering efficiency savings
- Speeds up registration as new members have instant access to the library
- Links to numerous data sources, including student record systems. HR systems and even alumni
Joined up Identity ManagementManaging multiple identities across an organisation is an increasing challenge faced by many institutions. The complex task of knowing the identity of your user has been greatly simplified through the use of back office identity management solutions.
Traditionally, library management systems (LMS) have been another silo holding the identity of an individual. This required duplication of effort by inputting information into the LMS, which had already been entered elsewhere, often either by batch data transfer or even manual methods.
That is no longer the case, with the Talis Keystone Identity Management module, your LMS synchronises with your identity management system in real-time and with numerous systems. This provides several benefits including:
- Instant access to the library - allows new members and visitors of the institution to have instant access to the library
- Removes the reliance on manual input - ensuring data integrity and provides efficiency savings
- Can link up several systems, for instance student records systems, HR systems for staff members and even alumni
