Key Issues And Challenges In Cloud Computing For Library Services

Abstract

Cloud computing can help libraries collaborate with each other in a facile manner. Every library has its own electronic data resources. If all electronic data resources are put together in a single place which may be accessed by a group of libraries, the whole electronic data base will become huge. This space which contains all the electronic data can be some cloud, say, a library cloud. This library cloud will contain the digitized data of different libraries and hence, will help libraries integrate their data. The need for maintaining and backing up the data will not be the responsibility of the libraries since all the data will be stored in the cloud which shall be managed by some cloud provider. It will also help the libraries in scaling up or down their data capacity whenever required. This scaling up or down is purely a function of need. Hence, the libraries would be consuming exactly the required space. As a result, libraries will not have to predict their future needs and buy space and infrastructure beforehand. This co adjuvant effort of the libraries will not only increase the overall efficiency (since the data will be shared) but also open doors for innovation, make libraries a lot more Scalable and help save money as well. This model would let libraries maintain more control over the applications and data stores that contain sensitive, private information about patrons. Provisioning and maintenance of infrastructure for Web based digital library present several challenges. In this paper we discuss about how library services can be utilized effectively using Cloud Computing and also discussed about , Issues, Challenges and benefits of cloud computing.
