Here is a look at key functionalities we anticipated ENCompass 2.0 would allow us to introduce.  On the right, you can see the new features (read bullets).  On the left are the features already built into e-Reference which we chose to keep as they still met the needs of our users. (read bullets)

I should note that while ENCompass 2.0 included authentication capability, we found it was not ready to handle authentication for our remote proprietary resources.  Our staff eventually integrated a custom authentication system using EZ-Proxy.
