The purpose of the present article is to study the existing and potential features of the management and sharing knowledge systems based on cloud computing in libraries and information centers. Present study, in addition to the investigation of existing and potential library software in the cloud-computing models of “software as a service” and “platformas a service”, also discusses ability of such models in the creation, dissemination and sharing of knowledge. Present study, besides investigating the software features that have proposed their utilities with these models, have also attempted to identify the usage and feedbacks of using these products in the world's top libraries and have proposed suggestions in relation to the purpose of the study. Methodology/Approach: The present study to collect data has used a combination of documentary study and the content analysis of websites of libraries of one hundred top universities according to the webometric website.
