Which agency developed EZ-proxy software for remote authentication of users for accessing e-resources ?

  • A.OCLC
  • B.ALA
  • C.FID
  • D.IFLA

Answer: A

The keyed agency is OCLC.

EZproxy is the widely used proxy software that lets authenticated library users reach licensed e-resources from off campus. It was created by Chris Zagar of Useful Utilities and acquired by OCLC in 2008; since then OCLC has developed, maintained and distributed it, which is why it is identified with OCLC.

ALA and IFLA are professional associations, and FID was an international federation for documentation; none develops access-management software.
