We believe in removing barriers to knowledge. We do this by helping libraries, publishers, research organizations and service providers improve user experience with secure single sign-on that provides insights and helps save time and money. What does that mean? Well, it means users can quickly and easily find the information they’re looking for, without having to remember multiple usernames and passwords. In turn, this leads to smarter ways of working, reduces admin time and costs, and unlocks greater potential for organizations and their users! Through our library products, organizations can protect their information and manage secure, seamless access to subscribed content while benefiting from usage reporting to make more informed strategic decisions. Our products: - OpenAthens Compass: Our flagship premium product offers a fully-managed single sign-on solution. It includes a personalized setup to meet the unique needs of any institution. It is designed for libraries in organizations operating in complex environments, offering a strong set of features and benefits as standard, including multi-admin capabilities, managed accounts, and sub-organization segregation. - OpenAthens Connect: Our Connect product provides secure and reliable remote access to digital subscriptions for libraries in organizations with simpler needs. We do this by offering a low-cost, user-friendly, and core-featured single sign-on solution. Over 3,200 organizations worldwide use our products, supporting a network of millions of end-users. We work to provide secure remote access, remove barriers to knowledge, and improve the end-user experience of students, patrons, and employees. Since 1995, we have built decades of experience improving access to information for everyone involved. Follow us for news and updates on the work we do!
