OpenAthens Ideas Portal

We're always looking for ways to improve our products, and we'd love your input to help us make that happen. Your suggestions will guide us in deciding where we should focus our future research and development.

Just sign in with your email to share your thoughts or vote for ideas you like—it'll help them get noticed!


Here’s how the portal is organised:

  • Librarians (Identity Providers): Share ideas that help organisations that manage user identities and provide access to online content and services. This includes improving the experience for students and researchers.

  • Publishers (Service Providers): Share ideas for organisations that offer content and services.

Create a marketplace for librarians to see latest offers from publishers

Picture in the SP dashboard, a place to manage their 'marketplace presence' - upload a logo, information on the services, contact details, and the option to add and pay for a promotion.

Meanwhile, the IDP dashboard has a 'Marketplace' tab.

OpenAthens administrators can view the latest offers on resource subscriptions (free trials, discounts, etc), with the ability to make an enquiry, or request a trial, and allow the option to share contact information/entity ID for easy set-up automatically.
