Libraries and the Cloud
The document explores the significance of cloud computing for libraries, discussing its various types, benefits, and drawbacks. It highlights how libraries can leverage Software as a Service (SaaS), Platform as a Service (PaaS), and Infrastructure as a Service (IaaS) to enhance operational efficiency and reduce costs. Additionally, it emphasizes the importance of transitioning to cloud services for improved scalability and collaboration, while also noting concerns around privacy and data ownership.
