Can my campus use InCommon for services other than accessing VIVA streaming files?
Yes InCommon is used to support single-sign-on for access to library databases available from vendors such as JSTOR, EBSCO, ProQuest and Elsevier. Federated access may also be enabled for programs such as the Microsoft DreamSpark program which makes MS Developer software available at no cost to students at participating schools. In addition there are a number of collaborative projects among higher education institutions which require InCommon membership. Visit the InCommon web site for more details.
