Lynne,
We do have this capability with SAM from Comprise.  SAM allows for regular patron access, visitors, and up to 4 additional "groups".  Each group can have different parameters for access on computers.  We haven't ever used these features, but they are available.

Subject: authentication software for reserving/using library computers


We want to be able to give double computer time to patrons with disabilities who need longer time. The authentication softwares we are familiar with (Telus and Envisionware) don't seem to be able to recognize different patron types...just different computer types, and we want to allow our patrons access to all library computers, mixed use or just AT. Does anyone have experience with this issue or possible solutions? Thanks in advance!
