PRIDE: People and Resources Identification for Distributed Environments

Introduction

The PRIDE project intended to develop a broker service to support the identification and delivery of information services over the Global Information Infrastructure.

The intention was for the PRIDE directory service to provide support for authorisation, registration & cost recovery and integration with other interfaces to library services. Such services are essential in networked service scenarios where:

• the information and support services may be inside & outside the library domain;
• the users may go anywhere for their service requirements;
• the service providers may seek patrons anywhere.

More information about Project PRIDE is available from the project Web pages at:
