Sir, Sh. Mithunvijay

I would like to mention that OpenID, this terms belongs to IT and computer domain, where no any formal authentication (permission) or login rights are required for getting access in to any URL/URI, account,  content, data or information etc. Also it can be said that there is no any third party authentication or password/key needed for getting access. It is a kind of standard which generally don't ask for any information related to user, consumer for person using accessing available information. There is a foundation working behind it is called OpenID Foundation, United States. The official site states on OpenID as follows, “Nobody should own this. Nobody's planning on making any money from this. The goal is to release every part of this under the most liberal licenses possible, so there's no money or licensing or registering required to play. It benefits the community as a whole if something like this exists, and we're all a part of the community.”

There are many positive aspects of OpenID, since it is talking about the public’s interests and not restricting to use the information irrespective of gender, age, region, and boundaries. But the main important part of any system is either side, weakness. OpenID has security issues and it may leads to vulnerable to phishing/unethical access and attacks etc. 

Next point you are talking about the implementation in India. Then I would like to mention that directly in directly almost all the libraries in India who have been in to automation have implemented this technology. Now a day almost all the libraries are having their own, website, WebOPAC. These are working almost on this policy only. One more thing, Intranet based content, may be subscribed e-journals, database, digital repositories, e-books, etc. which are purely accessible within the campus are also called as based on OpenID since there is no ID required for getting those information. In same WebOPAC if you are logining in to your account for getting information on transactions, overdue fine etc. then it may not be known as OpenID.

It is more or less like, open access and closed access of library system. It has many layers of it. So do not confuse with its nature and type. As I have mentioned in the story of intranet and internet related/based access. 

Sir, you are satisfied with the given information or you need more clarification?

Thanking you…  

thanks a lot sir
